As the title says, thinking about getting the hammer shifter for my gt. Anyone have experience in putting one of these in, or think they're worth it. Also any Pros/ Cons to it.

This one:

And anyone use the SCT 4-bank eliminator chip along with a bama tune?

I had an SCT 4 bank in my old gt. They are nice to have if you don't plan on making any tweaks once its in there. It was nice not to have to constantly flash different tunes. If you plan on tweaking things like shift points, rev limiter, or things like that then a handheld would be better.
As far as the hammer shifter goes, if you don't have a manual vb then its pretty much just in there for show.

Been using that shifter for years and love it. Never had a problem with it.

Haha, its okay! i figured it would have been sold anyways. but im glad to hear its easy to install.

Can the handle on top be changed to a normal ball? i dont like the looks of the t handle.

I think so but you will still have the lever on the back side. Another style T handle would be ideal. Ball not so much.

You can change it to any b&m ball or t handle, I had a ball went back to the handle it came with the extra weight with it makes it more stylish and easier to use
