Fox Hurst V-matic Shifter ?

The only aftermarket shifter made for the AOD that I know of is the B&M Hammer Shifter. I have it but too be honest it's hit or miss with the quality. It's also a ratchet shifter with a reverse lockout. Although it is not a direct fit, the quicksilver is a better quality shifter but takes fabricaton to make it fit and look well in the stock shifter location. Not a particularly hard install,but it does include you getting under the car a few times to adjust the shifter cable. Some guys had issues with the cable being long enough for the new shifter to go through all the gears and sometimes it takes multiiple times to go under the car to adjust the cable to get it right. It's hard to "fry" a transmission installing a new shifter, as it doesn't control shift points or line pressure, unless you really scew up with the shfter cable. The shifter you are looking at is designed for cars without a console so I don't know how it will fit or look in the stock location. It's also double the price of the Hammer shifter.

If your car is stock or if you don't race the car, there's no advantage in replacing the stock AOD shifter other than maybe the looks.
