Hey Jess, the cheap basic Hurst 3-speed shifters are crap! If you want quality you've got to pay for it. I bought a Hurst "Master Shifter" for a 57 Chevy I had some years ago and it was much, much better than the cheap versions! It's going to cost as much a a good 4-speed shifter but is worth it! Here's a link.
