Nice! How was the angle of the pistol grip in your hand? Was it awkwardly forward or does it fit the hand position properly. They look like they angle too far forward in 1st, 3rd and 5th.

I liked it. I didn't have any issues with hand position. Was it perfect, no, but I did enjoy it alot! I replaced the polyurethane bushing that came with the shifter with a factory rubber one due to the vibration/noise it transmitted into the cabin. I sacrificed some firmness of the shifter for noise reduction, but it was a tradeoff I was willing to make. I will say that the Barton shifters are the cat's meow with the 6 speed. They are much tighter than the Hurst and throws are shorter. In my opinion, the perfect setup would be a Barton with the hurst pistol grip handle for that visual appeal.
