I have the Hurst Blackjack on my Magnum, it aligns in the stock console well and shifts great but it's leaking out of the top ball, the issue IMO is assossicated with cutting out and reusing the internal Tremec rubber boot per their instructions. They say there may be an internal drain in the upper shifter housing that's clogged but I haven't had time to tear it apart and verify if thats the case.

Unless they've addressed the seal design I'd probably suggest a different design.

I used the shock shifter with a long hurst handle and LOVE it. it is mostly an arm rest when driving, stifts as fast as you want.

Is that a lineloc button on your pro touring car? Once a drag racer, always a drag racer....

Check out White lightning, adjustable spring rate, handle can be clocked in all kinds of different directions, short throw. Nice piece of hardware, I like it!

I've just been using the stock one. I actually prefer it the the pro 5.0 I had in my old T56.
