Which bracket did you use?

What about the mechanism is different than the comp plus?



I used the bracket that is attached to the shifter in the picture. It bolts directly to the mounting bosses on the end of the tail extension housing. I never really compared the two shifters side by side Talk to Jamie Passon about the difference between the two shifters as he rebuilds them and would know.

The steel mounting bracket moves the shifter up and over to your leg where it feels natural. A Competition Plus will bolt up to the steel bracket because the bolt pattern is the same.

Back in the early 70's I bought a original super shifter after going to one of Dick Landy's clinics that he had at a local dodge dealership. At that time he had a super shifter in the challenger that he brought to show. I had a 68 roadrunner that was a street/strip car. The next day I ordered the shifter. It came with the L bracket that raised and set back the shifter into the car, major cutting was required. The shifter did not come with a reverse lock out, that came later , it was just a side plate that you could move up and down with a piece of threaded rod and a red round ball on it . After the roadrunner I put the shifter in a 63, 64, plymouth and then the 67 barracuda. I don't remember using the L bracket in the 63, 64 but the barracuda did not need it. Some cutting was required on the crossmember and floor towards the back of the original shifter hole. The proper shift bracket was needed to rotate the shifter to work.

I thought the super shifter 3 was great just like you guys. And then I tried a Long shifter. The difference is night and day. I will never go back to a Hurst.

I have run a super shifter III for 30 years in my 70 roadrunner. It does use the bracket that moves the shifter up and back. The shifter sits inside the car above the cross member. I removed the factory shifter hump and made my own. I think it's the best H pattern shifter ever made. [image]100_0081[/image]
