What Shifter do you run?

[Signman]

Turbo Action is a very good shifter
Not much to wear out or break.
Great with Power Glide.
Great with air and electric shifter.
Manual shift with 3 Speed Auto not all that good with certain shift pattern.

Precision Performance the finest shifter made.
Never miss a shift.
Works great shifting manually or air / electric
Takes a little getting used to.
Cost of the base model only a little higher than Turbo Action.

Have used Turbo Action with PG for many years with no problem.
With 3 Speed had trouble shifting 1st to 3rd. Not fun loosing rounds like that.
NO problems with Precision Performance Products shifter.

I posted previously about the PPP shifter.

I have had the Turbo Action, Hurst Quarter stick, and the PPP. All worked great but the PPP is some much easier to use. I have add all three in either electric, air or manual.

Unless you have used a PPP it is really hard to understand why so many people like it. Had I known early on how great the shifters are, I would have purchased one from the start.

Just my .02

I fully agree. I have had others too. Didn't what the big deal was until I bought one.

I have both PPP and Turboaction........for your straightforward reverse pattern the Turboaction is great for my Lil Red and Gremlin.....it also was fine with my 70 challenger....for a clean nuetral tranny like in the Dragpak the PPP is really nice, the Turbo action used with a clean nuetral tranny is touchy, and if you aren't careful you can do the 1-3 thing...used in the dakota.....it has a different faceplate, and works but it can be tricky... Long for stick of course..70 challenger..too bad they don't make one for a auto, that would be a best seller for sure.

I can't speak for non-mopar uses, or non-driver shifted uses...IE air shifted, electric shift......others can chime in.

I had the same issues many years ago, shifting 1st to 3rd on occasion. I found that TA made a reverse shift specific gate plate which cured the problem.

3 speed, forward pattern, manually shifting 1-2 with the wheels in the air, every week, no trouble ever!

I've always used TA, Paul Forte pays contingency and stands behind his stuff. It's also nice to be able to just switch plates when going from 3 speed to PG and you can make it rear entry cable or front within 10 minutes. Understand Eric's point about easily getting to clean neutral but obviously not everyone is concerned about that anyway.

Turbo Action,3sp,fwd, I found you can't have a death grip on theT handle,if so you can go by 2nd into high, just slap it between 1-2 and it'll spring into the 2nd detent,works everytime.

Me too. Max-Wedge Cars with push-buttons are cool. I get 2 very different reactions from people - those over 50 who grew up in the Muscle Car era just smile when they see the pushbuttons are still there - and the younger ones who stare inside the car for a while and then ask "where's your shifter?".

And I must say there is a little more skill involved in using your left hand to stab a button for the 1-2 shift just as you pass the 60 ft. clock - instead of having the E-Shift doing your work for you.

I too use the Triple P Shifter, they are great people to deal with. It is a shame their stuff is so good ,you rarely have to talk with them. Again had I known how good the product was I could have saved quite a bit of money....
