I just cannot understand Tremec on this factory shifer. Maby they are paid by the shifter companies to keep the weak shifter going.

Thanks

the 3550 only comes with a base..if you buy a short stick for on top then you have a good overall shifter..i can powershift both my pro5oh shiter on my notch and the hatch witch only has a hurst handle on top of a stock base

FYI-tremec has just said that aftermarket shifters are what is killing the tremecs prematurally..they said that the stop bolts should be takin out as the stock shifter base doesn ont have any..they said that they are plenty stong so handle hard shifts(i dont know about you guys but i wont take min out..ill readjust it though o make sure it is all the way out
