Preferred shifter for Tremec TKO
 
I'm shopping for a new shifter for my Cobra. I guess I'm tired of missing the 2nd to 3rd shot. As I see it there are several available. Anyone use these and what's your thoughts/experience???

Pro-5.0
Blu Thunder
TriAx
B&M Ripper

Any feedback would be great!!! Thanks!

-Chris

BTW for anyone interested I just found this shift handle that looks like an interesting option the classic forward bent handle...

I have a Pro 5.0 (never used) I will be selling. Apparently it is too high for the ERA tunnel:CRY: :CRY: :CRY:

I agree! Pro5.0

I switched to a Pro 50 after missing too many 2-3 shifts. I also shortened the shifter handle. The first time I drove it I still missed the 2-3 shift because it was going nicely to 5th! I was so used to putting delberate rightward movement. The 5.0 shifter just needs to be pushed straight ahead to get to 3rd.
I would get the Jordan handle, it looks like the ideal configuration.

I use the Triax. Nice and short and never a problem. 2nd to 3rd has a nice strong spring load. The blue annodized aluminum and shifter knob are a nice fit.

Can't speak about the others, but the Pro 5.0 is very nice. I found the shift lever that came with it to be a bit short for me.
Switched to the Jordan lever with a round knob. Ahhhhhhhhh.

thanks

Those of you who went with the Pro 5.0, why did you make that selection?

I'm not sure who manufacturers the 5.0...

Pro 5.0 is a ball and cup design like a replacment hip joint instead of a 'X' and 'Y' mech pivot. I used the regular reversed lever...works great! Bolts right up.
Threw the 3'' lever that came with it away
