    Going T5 needing a shifter….

    I picked up the T5 today and need a shifter. What are y’all running in your T5’s and where is a good deal on one. I had pro 5.0 shifter in my 85 GT and it seemed good.

    Its really me....I fixed my caps lock .

    Pro 5.0's are good.  I have a stock shifter and am quite happy with it.

    If your looking for a stock shifter I have one I'll  give ya for the freight. It came out of a very high time 94 Mustang GT. I don't know how worn out it is, I never used it. The tranny was shot.

    You should get a shifter with the adjustable stops to protect the forks.

    1968 T-code Coupe with a 302.  Nice car, no show stopper for sure, but I like it.

    If you want to try an inexpensive Pro 5.0 copy, here's one on Amazon with some positive feedback:

    I would never run anything but a Pro 5.0.  Still the best shifter money can buy.  Its all I'll ever run on any Tremec trans.  I have two on T5s and one on a T56 currently.

    I've put Pro5.0's on all of mine and I am not kind to them! Never had a problem with them. The throw was very nice and crisp.
