Out of all the vertigates, its the easiest to use on the street. The trigger is much easier to pull up. The later Vertigate's trigger mechanism is way further down the handle. I always feel like I am gonig to break my fingers trying to pull up on the later triggers. Nice piece Mike!

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.

The history of these "straight-line" 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 "Best New Product" 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.

Muncies have been taken apart and put back together with so many different parts over the years. Many of the 1969 and later Muncies I have purchased come with 3/8"-24 studs and a 685 side cover. Unless you have a 100% correct with all original parts transmission (which anyone hardly ever does) then it doesn't matter. All you have to look at on your Muncie is what style of shift cam attachment you have and you're in business.
