Title: Vintage Speed Classic Shifters

Hi
Does anyone know what the bases of the Vintage Speed Taiwan bases are made from?
Are they cast aluminium?
Thanks
Richard

as far as I know the quality of Vintage speed stuff is really grate. I had VS exhausts in few different sizes and combinations for customers and also my fried Has their Mamba for T1 looks grate. One of my customers bought 356 replica with mamba 4 speed and it looks and works really grate (they deal with it really ruff and all the time it's in grate condition).  Comparing for example to EMPI Hurst's like shifters is like comparing Porsche 911 Turbo and 911 pedal car - they both are "cars" bot only one is the real one.
Wanna have oldschool shifter go for Berg, but if you wanna have OEM looking shifter go for SV. They are present on most of VW events so you can check it out on their display.
