Just installed my MGW and it is by far the best shifter i have used. I drove a stang with both A STEEDA and pro5.0 and i am glad i choose the mgw..I dident even use the gasket from here that i ordered b/c it was being a PITA and it is still quiet as stock and the shifts real well..great shifter

 

MGW shifters rock!!!

 

sweet!!! I love my mgw too!!

What you should do, and i think this is what i did but i cant really remember..
turn the shifter upside down, align the gasket, and put the screws through, so it doesnt move, then set it back down on the tranny and screw it in and make sure the gasket stays in place..im pretty sure thats what i did

 

I had to do the same with my Steeda Tri-Ax.

 

Ill have to do that this winter.. I dont feel like pulling it off and everything again right now

 

Congrats on the new shifter.Going to get an MGW too here sometime.

 

pix? how short is it?

 

Congrats, a shifter is one of the best mods(aside from gears) that you can do to your car. Makes it completely different to drive. What color handle did you get?

 

I don't think it actually "looks" any shorter, but the throw between gears is definitely shorter...sorry, this is the best pic I have of it right now...

 

I have the same bezel and ball. Looks better on a black interior IMO. Mine is tan.

A shifter is a must on a 5 Speed.

 

They just have one handle now..it is orange and it is a mix between the cruiser and sport i guess

 

Id like a MGW short throw but ive got other stuff I need done first. MGW seems to be the choice of everyone whos tried all 3.
