Hurst shifter vs 1le shifter
Hi All, I’m tempted to pull the trigger on ordering myself the Hurst short throw that lets you use the oem knob. I love the white ball but not in the 1le interior. Many people do this mod and/or your opinions if worth the money over the stock 1le shifter? Any negative fb on this shifter? I had put a hurst in my ‘13 2SS and loved it. Darryl

From what I hear it's a serious PITA to swap? I heard it doesn't top load right through the cockpit?

I can barely tell any difference with my 2020 SS 1LE shifter VS the one in my 2017 Camaro SS

The bad: This is a tough install and requires (2) people at certain steps of the install and special tools. It requires dropping the exhaust, driveshaft, and transmission (slightly). On a scale of 1 to 10 for DIYers, this is a 10.

the 1LE shifter is only 6% shorter than stock the Hurst is 40% shorter. i recommend doing a softer reverse spring. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Soft-Revers...53.m2749.l2649 the reverse spring is easy to install if you have a pair of snap ring pliers. the shifter is time consuming but not hard. if you have a lift. i wouldn't do it on jack stands. id rather pay a gm performance shop to do it if i didnt have a lift. actually if you wanted we could do it on my lift. im 107miles from you.
