8HP70 Shifter Mock Up

[JORDINSKI]

Let me know what you guys think. I am trying to keep everything as stock as possible, keyword trying. Another option would be same setup with a Hurst shifter.

If that's my only 2 choices I would go Hurst.

go stock

IMO the Hurst looks better than the stock one.

I agree I think the Hurst instead of the stock one only because I don't like that the handle and the console would both have the "PRND" indications. Do they make any stock handles that don't have the letters on them?

I think I like the stock one better. It would definitely make people do a double take if they spot it. I wonder if it would look better with the factory "PRND21" blacked out.....or something ingenious scripted in there.

Why not use the factory shifter handle?

1. The stock shifter won't work, the 8HP uses an E-shifter module, not a cable connected to the shifter at one end and the trans at the other. It's like throttle-by-wire, but for the transmission.

2. I'd get a spare lens for the console, black it out, and get a decal made for your car's model, to look like a fender/pillar badge ("Charger", "Satellite", "Road Runner" - whatever). Or, get a trashed console, cut and section it, and eliminate the window altogether so the only opening is the slot for the shifter itself.
