THE 1ST. THE BEST: Twist Machine first introduced the production paddle shifter way back in 2004. Since then, they have furthered the concept into comprehensive, manumatic systems for hot rods. CNC machined from solid aluminum, the Shrifter® is robust enough to earn a LIFETIME WARRANTY. If, through normal use, you can break the Shrifter® or wear it out, we will fix or replace it at no charge.
FOR HOT RODS ONLY: The Shrifter® is ONLY intended for pre-airbag cars. It requires a relatively flat aftermarket steering wheel because it replaces the hub that’s commonly used with custom wheels. The Shrifter® accepts 9 bolt (LeCarra, Budnik, etc.) steering wheels WITHOUT the need for an adapter. 5 bolt (Grant), and 6 bolt (Sparco/Momo) wheels can be easily installed with an adapter. Custom steering wheel adapters may also be ordered. Shrifters® are shipped with an easy to maintain brushed finish or Black anodized finish.
PACKAGE DEAL: Most of Twist Machine's clients purchase the Shrifter® as a part of a package that includes a Compushift trans controller, wiring harness, display/tuner, custom calibration, and lifetime tech support. Twist Machine will inquire about your vehicle’s specs, as well as your driving style. After 1000’s of units sold worldwide, Twist Machine has the expertise to build you a proper calibration. We train fine tuning as well. In about 20 minutes, we’ll make you a tuning expert. (the calibration will need to be reviewed between Twist Machine and the purchaser prior to shipment).
IT’s WIRELESS: The Shrifter® attaches to your steering column without any wires. RF Signal transfer occurs in only 125 milliseconds. The paddle shifter itself uses a commonly available battery with a service life of more than 3 years.
Two paddle shifter models are available. SPLINED: Fits 67-94 GM columns as well as Ididit and Flaming River. UNIVERSAL: A common 3 bolt flange matches Grant Install Kits and most quick release racing hubs. If you have a ‘66 Ford, a 71 Dodge or a pre ‘67 Chevy, choose the universal model.
