Anyone use one? I just picked one up for $75 and am curious if it is worth putting on the car. I have the regular old stock shifter now, so I would think that most anything would be an upgrade. And heck, if noone is running them I will put it in and let you know how it is.

Never had experience with one, but like you said, anything is an upgrade over the stock shifter, unless it breaks or something.

The BBK isn't anywhere near a Tri-Ax, Pro 5.0, or MGW, but I'm sure it's much better than stock......For $75 bucks you can't go wrong.

Never tried the BBK.

I had a B&M Pro ripper though...it was decent but always fell apart on me. My new tremec has a hurst so I cant wait to try that out.
