At first I was going to run a Lokar but started researching Genie and see that they put out some great products.
Anyone here have any personal experience with both or have any input on them? I've used Lokar before without any major problems but never Genie. Also I am wondering linkage vs cable operated? I am running a cable operated shifter in my 66 F100 and not sure that I really like it...
Thanks guys for any help!
