What Is A B&M Short Throw Shifter
A B&M Short Throw Shifter is a direct, bolt-on, self-contained unit. When you buy a B&M Short Throw Shifter, along with the complete shifter unit, you get explicit installation instructions. Installation usually takes about 30 minutes with nothing more than ordinary hand tools.
Why Should I Buy A B&M Short Throw Shifter
A B&M Short Throw Shifter offers a dramatic improvement in shifting performance due in large part to reduced shifter travel, or "shift throw".
Why Should Shift Throw Matter To Me
Shift throw refers directly to actual physical travel of the shifter stick - thus affecting the time it takes to shift from one gear to another (see illustration). In a performance situation, the additional seconds (or fractions of a second) a factory stock shifter takes to go from one gear to another can result in slower elapsed times - or just a sluggish feeling when driving around town. A B&M Short Throw Shifter eliminates that sluggish feeling in a daily driver, and gives the racer an extra edge.
Why Should I Buy A B&M Shifter
B&M has been in the short shifter technology business for almost 50 years. No one has as much time invested in the research, development and practical application of shifter/transmission performance than B&M. If you want a half-century of experience behind you and your vehicle's short shifter - buy B&M.
