Anyone fitted a B&M quickshift to there vehicle ? how easy is it and is it any good ?

Check out ls1gto.com. The general concensus seems to be that the GMM Ripshifter is a much better engineered item.

I looked at this a while back and while the Ripshifter is more expensive it certainly got far better reviews than any of the other offerings. If you've got access to ramps you can fit the Ripshifter yourself with minimum fuss which means you can import it from Oz direct and get it for around £250 last I looked.

B&M has shorter shifts I believe.
Rip has narrow across the gates, but top to bottom is a little longer than I like.
Plus B&M is cheaper. But the RIP is heavier duty. B&M uses part of the stock arrangement and earlier ones relied on weak screws and fixings.
Id be tempted with a B&M though. I think its only drag strip junkies who slam it that were having problems.
That being said.. I have the rip.
