TorchRedV6

Ok, I looked around the last few pages about previous posts on this topic and found little info. I saw on Mr.Gasket .com that Hurst is now making a short throw shifter for the 4.0 V6. The part number is 391 0203. However, after much surfing around the internet to no avail, I still don't know where I can go to get one of these shifters. Does anybody here have one in their V6 or does anyone know who is selling them? Any help would be great as I want one these so bad!!!

I don't think they've been released yet.

Thanks P. Kiley. Nobody else knows anything else though??
I've got couple of emails out to hurst and some dealers so I'll let y'all know what I hear.

Please do. I have a couple of these waiting on this hitting the streets : Link

Eee.. I hate badging... I prefer to keep the car clean.. all my badges go onto my guitar case

Yay Hurst.. something else to spend money on w00t! I cant wait!

I can't play worth a lick, so a guitar case would be a poor investment

I don't mind a little badging as long as it's not overpowering, especially something like the Hurst badge which has a retro look. I'm considering something like this photochop (the badge might be a bit oversize here):

I think the guys with black 'stangs seem to be more likely to be against badging as it breaks up the "stealth" image. On a torch red car, that's obviously not quite applicable

That was weird, I tried posting once here, it didn't work (browser timed out), so I redo the post fresh, and more than an hour later the original post shows up after the second one :scratch:

Well, it took a little while but I finally got an email back from the tech guys at Mr. Gasket.com. Here's what they said - "The shifters will be available ealry in the spring of 06. They will run about $200 to $300 depending on the dealer. We will not offer the shifter from our website. Thank you ".

So it looks like only a few months to hold off before we can have a Hurst equipped V6. Sounds good to me although I would like to see the price drop below $200 to compete with other shifters such as Steeda's. Hope this info. helps anyone considering purchasing a Hurst shifter. :drive:

Let's just hope it's lower than that. A street price of about $179.00 would be in the right ballpark imho.

Give it a month and wait till they hit ebay.. we'll see some good deals then
