    What is the best bang for your buck shifter.

    Alright it has heavy duty adjustable stops and it has 2 springs on each side of the pivot ball in the housing. If you remove one fo them you can get a "softer" shifter feel and if u add it you can get a "harder" feel. I paid $29 for the shifter minus the stick and ball. Im having my buddy...

    Lumpiest cam with gt40p setup?
