Hurst T-bar shifter in ms3?

[Tooch]

don't hate I just have a thing for those shifters as I have a rediculously large hand and those shifters fit my hand better than a small knob so I can throw the shifter around more accurately. Any idea what the thread is on the ms3 shifter knob and anybody know if I can mount a hurst t-bar shift knob on that sucker?

I don't know the thread size or pitch, but if you can find Yosemite Sam mudflaps or rear window louvers for the MS3 I'll be a happier man.

That handle lends itself to an automatic, not manual pattern. Hurst did have a similar manual handle but it was like a lazy "S" shape oriented fore-aft.

Those T handle shifters would look GREAT in your IROC...

Surely Momo or somebody makes a shifter to fit your giant hands that doesn't look like it belongs in a 71 Chevelle.

FWIW TWM performance sells larger shift kanobs.

Seems like one of those classic round (8-ball type)shift knobs would be a better fit for someone with big hands. I don't know if you'd like that t-shape in a manual.

Huh???

You are never supposed to grip the shift knob so the size of your hands really don't matter.

I never really grip my shift knob.....only fingertips or palm.

The proper way to shift:

^^I'll vouch for that as well. I've tried every which way and fastest shifts are with the push-and-pull technique using the palm and fingers.


Some people just like to grab and manhandle their knobs.(evil)

I'm glad you changed your mind, because you'd have to install four more cylinders for that to work out.
