Found this hurst shift handle and I really like how it looks. What do you guys think about doing that handle with a black hurst shift knob like the one below? Also, which handle is more comfortable, the bent or straight style? Also which height would you guys recommend: 6,8, or 10 inch?

If you’re running a round ball style shift knob and have a short shift base I’d probably go with the 8in one. If you don’t have a short shifter I’d do the 6in.
Do you know how you go about putting that through the shift boot and making it look good? Is there some way to secure the leather boot around the handle?
I’d think you could just slide the boot over it and it’ll just hold itself in place. That’s what I did with my burst shifter.
Isn't the stock boot designed to ride high on the stick and is designed for a round lever?
Yea I guess I’ll see how that looks I’m just worried the boot is going to cover that nice handle. If anything I’ll come up with some sort of rig to keep the boot low.
You’re probably right on that. I don’t have a factory boot in mine.
Just get the hurst bezel and boot. It sits pretty low on the handle.
