Re: 70 chevelle factory hurst shifter?
I spoke to Campbell (head of the manufacturing plant in Warminster, PA) about this many years ago. He backs up what William said, and also told me why the factory supplied Hurst shifter were round stock vs. the aftermarket being flat stock - cost. GM would beat them up on cost, and wanted the cheaper round stock arms that could be bent vs. the flat stock arms that they burned out of plate. Interesting guy to talk to
