I'm not gonna argue... It was a knowledgeable source when I asked another question about the availability of a scatter shield for the bellhousing, which is part of the MT-82 housing and not separate like a Tremec. I've been under the car and am quite knowledgeable about equipment on this car...

Yeah the build sheet says Tremec but I've already been told by others in this forum it's the MT-82

I'm quite sure I ordered the correct model of shifter for my car...

I don't have a Tremec, a 2024 Dark Horse has the Getrag MT-82 but it's the same from a shifter point of view from what I understand. The stock shifter for the MT-82 from Ford is all plastic internals that actuate a cast aluminum arm that is not straight... Review the install video here -> The...

I looked at the Steeda... Sorry but wasn't impressed with it because it really doesn't address the problems with the stock plastic parts of the shifter, which for me and others I talked to as a concern. Went with MGW, very high quality parts and was impressed with how everything was packaged...

Yeah I looked at the Steeda, but all it is is a replacement stick for the stock shifter base, which still mounts to both tranny and body for the MT-82 transmission.

The stock shifter sucks, which is why I am looking at aftermarket options... gonna try the MGW one out... Thanks!

Thanks all for your input... I order the MGW Shifter yesterday. :cool:

Ok thanks... you have given me a lot to think about... I'll agree that the MGW looks a lot easier to install than the Barton and looks like it is more value for the money. Looks like they thought of everything when they engineered this stuff. I also like how they retained the factory boot...

Hmmm, I'll agree it's quite a work of art, possibly over engineered, maybe? The only thing I don't like about it is the reverse lockout being a push down instead of pulling up on a collar like stock. Barton has both types to choose from... Do you ever find that you put it in reverse by accident...

Hi all, I can't seem to find any recommendations on various threads here (there is a lot of them!) around what aftermarket shifter you all prefer. I have a 2024 Dark Horse and I was recommended a Barton shifter by a new friend of mine in my car club, he swears they are the best. Do you all...

oh crap...

Yeah I'm thinking the same if it was 110 race fuel, if it was unleaded race fuel then you should be good. Otherwise you said you did the Steeda H-Pipe resonator delete, maybe you damaged a wire to the O2 sensor during the install and/or it's now touching the pipe?

Ok up to you...

LOL, really? It's pretty self explanatory... And my statement still stands... why buy a muscle car with 12-1 compression and cheap out on the gas? If you can't afford the correct gas then IMHO there's a problem which is what the OP was posting about at the beginning of this thread.

Well since I don't need this then using pump gas at 93 octane or better is my preferred option. I also have unleaded race gas available in my area.... if that was really a route I wanted to go with. Regardless if you are going to spend big money on a new muscle car with a high compression...

Right off the Ford website... https://www.ford.ca/cars/mustang/models/dark-horse/ I think you all need to rethink your strategy around using bad gas for a high compression engine... If you don't have the octane requirement in your place of residence then octane boost additives are always a...

I live in a rural area around Lindsay, Ontario... Lot's of stations have 93 or better octane.... I've never been without an option to find that type of gasoline.

I wouldn't, I always use either 93 or 94 octane, and drive away from any station that has 91 "Premium". I bought the car knowing full well that it calls for 93 octane or better gas, and I don't want to f-up a high compression engine with lousy gas. It's just not worth taking the risk...

Yeah like my last TV that lasted only 1 1/2 years....
