Welcome to our Corvette forum, what is the make, size of the tires and wheels? I assume the wheels are stock GM?

Can't respond on the hearst shifter but you need to consider the MGW shifter - just installed one and it's great. :sm_party:

I installed a Hurst shifter in my '02 Z06. I liked it a lot. It had a solid shift and feel. The feel is more of a "mechanical feel" to me. Similar to the shifters I remember from the '70's.

The Hurst shifters come with I think 3 or 4 different springs that allow you to adjust the tension on the shifter.

Looking for a shifter myself.
I've heard the Hurst is a little stiff.
MGW, and Breathless are two to consider.

The Hurst shifter is a little stiff, but it can be adjusted by inserting different springs.
