Optional Shift Ball for Hurst?

Please don't tell me to buy a MGW, lol,

I just want a larger shift ball than what comes standard with the Hurst. The one problem I have with it (the shifter) is that the ball is so small, my fingers are in contact with the "set nut" and its irritating. I found the Roush Retro, sent email, but no replies...

"Roush 2005+ Retro Style 5-Speed Shift **** - Black"

Anyone know?

Actually, the Hurst is a 1.75" ball. The MRT 2.25" ball is way too large.

If you're wanting to go larger, I'd go with grabberpony.com. It's 2". It'll be completely custom and just the size you're looking for.
