Description
Short throw shifter kit with CHROME stick for OE replacement in:
- 2005-2013 Chevrolet Corvette (C6) - all models with manual trans
- Stick has 3/8"-16 knob thread
- Lower pivot cup NOT included - reuse OE or buy separately
- Stock shifter base mounting bolts are reused; if you presently have an aftermarket shifter and do not have the stock mounting bolts, request bolts with payment
Kit includes chrome stick #7201, classic knob, base assembly, gasket, stick bolts, boot grommet, and installation instructions. On all C6 models, the factory leather console boot attaches to the supplied rubber grommet (without modification) for a professional, finished look.
Throw is reduced by ~ 20%; most aftermarket Corvette shifters are too aggressive - this one has the ideal balance of effort vs distance. Knob is 1" higher than stock. Other versions of this shifter are available (see separate listings)
This is NOT a Hurst product; compared to all brands it is smaller and simpler but fits and works better. The base is built by Core Shifters using proven components inside a custom housing:
- High-strength billet steel gear selector w/ hardened steel crosspin
- Spherical fulcrum pivot in a spring-loaded, self-lubricating polymer socket
- Low-friction captured design - no bias springs
- Effort to enter reverse and 5-6 gate is minimized
- 2-3 shift improved by reduced leverage without adding excess force
- CNC-machined billet aluminum housing w/ steel wear clips
- Zinc-plated laser-cut steel baseplate
- Vibration-resistant serrated flange head steel retaining bolts
