Pro 5.0 Shifter Q's

302 LX Eric · 09-24-2002, 03:32 PM

Hey guys,

I'm looking to get a Pro-5.0 shifter for my Tremec, and had a couple questions for you:

1) Does the shifter come with handle or do I have to reuse my stock handle?

2) If it comes with a handle, does it also come with a knob?

For $200, I would think everything above is included, but who knows?

Thanks,
E

I bought one for my T5 and it came with a much shorter handle than stock, but did not come with a knob. Your stock knob will fit the new handle.

I got a FatKnob (like a pool ball) and it is great.

I bought my Pro 5.0 shifter for $160. and it came with shorter shifter and no knob. Works good though...bang the heck out of it with no problems.

I paid about $160 for mine as well. The shifter is much shorter which I fell in love with the first time I backed out of my driveway after the install. And the stock handle works fine. I'm thinking aobut getting a leather shifter or a metal shifter but I've had the stock on my Pro 5.0 for two years and it has worked great. Well worth the money, don't worry about the knob. And try to find a better price than $200.

Where and how long ago did you guys buy that shifter for $160? Ive been looking at different places and the best ive found is 179.

Yeah, I've found that the T-5 version is $179 and the Tremec is $199. Best I could find.
