Default Pro 5.0?

I used to have one on my old car and loved it, any other opinions for a shifter choice? Seems to be that my only other option would be the MGW shifter based on research and now am debating I suppose to go with something new that I've never tried before or stick with what pleased.

The first shifter I bought for my T56 was a B&M. It worked good for a few years until the pivot ball disintegrated. I have a hurst now and I love it.

ya thinking of the MGW just for the hell of it... it's a new shifter for the f-body but the top choice for mustang owners ...although have heard nothing but good review from LS1 owners

I have the Pro 5.0 and love it. I have not missed a shift since installing it.

I have a Pro 5.0 with a Lou's Short Stick. It's a great setup, but the shorter stick did take getting used to. I had to modify my usual grip to keep my little finger from getting pinched. Now that I have adapted, it works and feels great. I did not cut the boot at all when I installed the shifter.
