Default The Shrifter is back!

It's official, the Shrifter is now for sale! Check out www.TwistMachine.com for more details.

I want to congratulate Steve for the hard work he has put into this. I hope it's as huge as I expect it to be!

Congrats Steve-o....I really wish you the best in your new venture. I believe you have found a niche' that crosses into not only PT cars, but also streetrods, newer vehicles etc.. and that can can only be good for business...The product just plain kicks ass as well....I have done the trans cal work on the tap shift equipped comp-G GP's for a couple of years, and I can truly appreciate how much more is added to the driving experience of an automatic when you can manually select the gears.

On a sidenote, I am really glad to see a few of my friends going out and developing products for this industry, the billet taillights and related components, your shrifter, Scotts web venture, great job guys....not easy to do, and can be painful at times, but I believe without a doubt that all of you will be successful.

Jim,
We're breaking new ground here with the paddle shifter, so there was really no way for John Meaney to foresee the demand. Give him credit for seeing the application when he designed the T-Com controller over eight years ago. The T-Com harness has shipped for eight years with the necessary wiring and connector.And noone ever plugged anything into it ('cept me).

Please contact Bigstuff3. According to John Meaney, Manu-matic function exists in their engine/trans controller. All that is needed is the wiring to get the signal in and out. In the end you can say that you had one of the world's first paddle shifted hot rods.

Jeff,
Thanks for the words of encouragement. I P-M'd you a coupla days ago over on P-T. You get it?
