Re: Shifter selection
Turbo action for myself, I have had a couple of them and never had any issues, extremly reliable. Really just come down to personal preference though.
I am not really sure what the question is, but I am pretty sure the answer is Big Block.

Re: Shifter selection
I have a B&M Pro Ratchet and I like it but I have recently had a weird experience with it and I found I'm not the only one.
The shifter was installed and the linkage was all aligned and worked great.
Then we decided to rebuild the tranny.
After the rebuild, I went to reinstall the shifter and I couldn't get the shifter linkage to align properly.
I tried everything and it wouldn't work.
I called B&M and they were no help at all and the rep said this is the first he has heard of this.
That was total bull, because I did a posting about it on another site and sure enough, others have had the same problem.
I got things to work again but not after having to go through a lot of trouble and it's still not the same as it used to be.
I have heard good things about the Turbo Action shifter but I have also had good luck with other B&M shifters as well as the Hurst Quarter Stick.

Those who think they know it all have no way of finding out they don't.........

The Turbo Action Cheetahs are awesome shifters. Top notch with a really nice shifter cable.sebgasseau wrote:alright thanks boys.

I don't own one now but, did in years past and it was a joy to use.
