I have a b&m quick silver shifter in my 1980 Malibu and I absolutely love it. Plus you have to pull up on the shifter to get it out of park so it makes someone unfamiliar with the shifter hard to steal. No complaints about it and I slap it hard

I have always ran B & M shifters and never had any issues, pick a style that you feel looks right in your car with the features that work for your application.

That's for a 4 speed manual trans.

When I ran automatics I started with a B&M Star Shifter,

Then I went with the Hurst Quarter Stick.

When I put a 700r4 in my car B&M actually made a Monte SS console Pro Stick.

After that I went to manual transmissions in the Malibus

Have you ever worked a Mega Shifter?

I absolutely hate them from what I remember.

Find someone with one or ask a speed shop to see one.

Some love them Some hate them.
