It's definitely a nicer element and makes the action better but I was actually surprised of the weight of the stock shifter ball. U will like the way it feels and extremely enjoy the action of the shifter. The install was easy as far as I'm concerned.Does the weighted ball make it easier to shift?

If I had to do again I would probably get their's
The adapter doesn't work too well for me because of the noise it makes from vibration.

That looks really nice, would you mind taking a picture of the screw that tightens the ball? For obvious reasons it's left out of the promo pics, but that's what has me second guessing if im going to order that or just the shifter and get a different weighted knob. Thanks!
Just to add, because I also have this shift knob from MGW. The knob still threads on like normal. The set screw is just there to tighten the knob to where the shift pattern logo is straight. If you put the knob on and thread it all the way down the logo on top isn't going to line up. So you back it off making sure the logo is straight then tighten the set screw.Here is the pic. Just so we are clear, this knob and the billet piece are one and not separate. The set screw holds it to the shift arm. I have no movement or vibration.
Thanks, that looks much better than I expected. Thanks for taking the pic!Here is the pic. Just so we are clear, this knob and the billet piece are one and not separate. The set screw holds it to the shift arm. I have no movement or vibration.

No problem. You'll never see that view once it's installed.Thanks, that looks much better than I expected. Thanks for taking the pic!

Pretty happy with the weighted MGW knob myself.
