I know many people use the competition plus and love it. But when I got mine it I didn't like it. It was hard to get it into reverse. The trigger on the handle doesn't work, etc.
So I got an original style shifter with hiem jointed rods from the Kirkhams and have been really happy with it.
You might want to consider it.
Cost is about the same as the hurst with a modified cobra handle.
