X2.
That's not the only reason the Ram Rod is better. I've never saw or heard of a Ram Rod shifter getting jambed up between gears. Lots of stories about it happening to V-gates though.
Very nice piece.

You might as well be looking for a needle in a hay stack.

I think I would use a nos super boot and poke a hole for the reverse if I had to.

LOL...that's exactly what I did in my Chevelle. I'll have to get over to the car and get a picture of it.
I fabbed a bezel out of .065 aluminum to go around the hole I cut. Had to cut into the side of the stainless plate though.
And would'nt you know, but 5 to 6 months later I found and bought two nos Ram Rod boots. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I believe if you wanted to sell your second boot someone who buys my shifter would love that.!

The history of these &quot;straight-line&quot; shifters is interesting. Mr. Gaskest, who loved to challenge Hurt's dominance in the shifter market, actually introduced their version first and it even won &quot;Best New Product&quot; at the SEMA show that year. About six months later, Hurst released their version of the straight-line shifter. Eventually, Mr. Gasket even purchased Hurst.

I almost forgot to add the picture of my Ram Rod shifter with the modified Super Boot.

Re: Super rare Hurst Ram 4 Shifter NOS complete
 

I like it.!! Is the reverse stick chromed or is it a reflection?

Re: Super rare Hurst Ram 4 Shifter NOS complete
 

It's chrome. When I restore these shifters I always chrome the reverse lever.
