Hi All,

    My new Hurst shifter just arrived today. This thing is too cool and the
pictures on line don't do it justice. I hope to have it in this Sunday and
will give a report on its performance.
    For anyone wondering, this shifter is for the AX-15 transmissions only
(v6 manual trannys). Hurst does not make one for the NV3500 or others. The
part number is 391-5050 from Jegs.com and is $191.98 shipped to your door.
You can see what it looks like at http://www.mrgasket.com/ftp/pdf/HN2000.pdf
On page 19 you can see a picture of it and some specs. The shifter is more
angled that what it shows in the picture with a (about) 40 degree angle once
it comes out of the boot. It does clear the center section of the seats no
problem. The shifter is also angled towards the driver by about 8 - 10
degrees. The throw is measured at 7 1/2" - 8". The instructions are
excellent and I hope to have it installed this coming Sunday. I'll have some
photos and instructions up on my page shortly thereafter.
