shifter

[Murphdog]

Hello, Looking for suggestions for a 4 speed shifter for my 63 Belair. Hurst Competition Plus, Hurst Super Shifter, curious about install issues. It will have the factory bench seat. Will 1 of these be compatible with the factory 4 speed "tunnel extension" like Show Cars sells? Are there boots that work with the factory floor hole & a rectangular shifter handle.

Competition Plus is hard to beat for a street car.

This might stretch around a square shift handle ,it's a Mr gasket. You could probably trim the boot to fit handle also. It would resemble a factory round type boot used in a bench seat car.

Hurst competition plus is by far the best, fits the 4 speed tunnel cover( like the factory shifter), use the hurst flat handle with a hurst boot,( so it wont rip).

Or use the factory 4 speed round boot and a bolt on factory style round handle on the Hurst shifter.
I have lots of pictures I can post.
I have a brand new Hurst competition Plus 4 speed shifter that I will be selling.

It should be noted that the current Hurst completion shifters being sold new do not have the rods and arms marked with the part numbers that tie them to the correct year and model car ( the Hurst patent expired ).

I used a repo shifter handle that fits Hurst body/linkage for my 59. It works well and clears my bench seat as it should.

I am running a 64 LeMans bench seat 4 speed shifter. It has the same shape as a factory bench seat shifter handle. I like that it's a Hurst, has a round stick (fits the stock boot), has a larger diameter shift knob, and it sits lower coming through the floor. Here's one on eBay. The price is a little optimistic.

Do you still have shifter available?

I have a very nice used Hurst Competition plus 4 speed shifter used on a Muncie 4 speed on my 62 Impala 327 motor.
Its currently with a mint original Muncie 4 speed transmission. Actually both of them are probably for sale.
The shifter is for Muncie 4 speed transmissions with studs(pre 1969) to mount the shifter arms.

Hurst 4 speed shifters are normally tied to a specific year and model but can work on other models with Muncies.
The shifter itself is Hurst # 391-7308 with a bolt on handle.

You can buy the shifter install kit by itself for specific year models. The shofter arms for stud vs bolt on the transmission are different and can be bought separate from a guy online.

The hurst 4 speed shifter I have for a Muncie 4 speed, has the complete original Hurst installation kit # 373-3163.

I have a comp plus shifter on my m22 and the car has a bench seat. What I did for a boot, was get a small boot for like a 68 nova with a console and a 4 speed. It resembles a small version of the Hurst pleated boots. Just cut a small slit in my carpet and tucked the boot between the floor and carpet. Nice, simple and clean.
