Hi All,

We at H-FIT.com just wanted to provide some info on our new H-Fit Short Shifter Adapter System (SSAS).

The SSAS consists of the short shifter adapter and a four piece hard mount kit.

The short shifter adapter is made of heat treated ASTM 1040 mid-carbon steel. We chose to use this this material for strength and longevity. The design reduces the shifter throw by 21%. We found this to be the optimum length to produce the shortest and cleanest shifts.

The adapter utilizes 4 cone point hardened alloy set screws that bite into the OEM shifter shaft well above the OEM pivot ball. This provides an extra secure mounting method without the possibility of marring and damaging the OEM pivot ball. Additionally, we optimized the pivot ball diameter to more perfectly fit the OEM plastic ball cup. This reduces the amount of play between the shifter pivot ball and the shifter cable, which in turn tightens things up a bit.

The hard mount kit was designed to firm up the entire stock shifter assembly. The hard mounts replace the stock rubber bushings with 6061-T6 aluminum spacers. The hard mount bushings are designed to fit snug into the stock plastic shifter assembly body to keep the assembly sturdily mounted to the car. The bushings raise the stock shifter assembly 1/8" in order to eliminate any contact between the short shifter adapter and the sheetmetal above the gas tank.

The hard mount allows the shifter "click" sound and feel to be more defined and allows more precise gear selection.

The combination of the short shifter adapter and hard mount kit produces short, tight, and crisp shifts with excellent shifter feedback.

Edit: I forgot to answer the questions on the pricing. The current pricing on the website is for the hard mounts only. The SSAS kit will consists of the hard mount spacers and the short shift adapter. We will have pricing for the SSAS kit up shortly on the website under the products section.


As always, feel free to ask any further questions you have and we'll be happy to answer them.

Thanks again!
