I have a customer who wants to buy a good Power Glide drag race shifter that he can put a RPM activated electric solenoid on it to make it shift from the RPM module I have a older Phantom, now owned by Biondo and sold under their name now, shifter with a Shift Noid CO2 operated RPM activated solenoid on it that works good but he doesn't want the bottle and lines in his car. Is the Precision brand ,PPP, better than most of the other bigger brands like B&M and Hurst shifters ? All help and comments welcomed

I also have a Phantom that I bought from John when he first came out with them. Great shifter. Biondo has that style shifter available with electric along with the Pro Stick/Quarter Stick style and some others. PPP does an electric unit and Shifnoid sells add on kits for a number of shifters. Never used an electric unit myself. We had CO2 running multiple things in the car, so it was an easy decision.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Here's my set-up. Hurst QuarterStick & Shiftnoid solenoid. It's worked good for me. Same thing in the Camaro I drive that we used to run 6.0 index (1/8 mile) classes with. Has worked flawless for years.

We have a PPP in the door car and a Bandit in the dragster. Dragster is electric door car is air.

While the Hurst Quarter Stick and B&M Pro Stick are similar and both work well (I used a Quarter Stick with the 3 speed and liked it after replacing the cheesy cable) the B&M comes with a true Morse cable and nicer hardware. A least it did the last time I had one in my hands.
