Default Shortshifter install.

I just ordered the Pro 5.0 shifter which doesn't come with the gaskets. Anybody know a good palce to get the high temp silicone or whatever you need to do the install??

Any auto parts store will carry it.. Should have bought MGW, they give you a small tube to do the job.

Any parts store carries the silicone. You can also order gaskets online.

I asked the same thing under a thread titled tri ax install or something. Someone posted a site that has instructions and gaskets for that shifter and others.

I would just pick up some silicone.

I was never a fan of gaskets under a shifter that is supposed to use silicone.

Use ultra black RTV hi-temp silicone. It makes a good gasket. Thats what came with my MGW.

no need for high temp silicone, it doesn't get that hot, just any ole silicone will do.

I'm going with this guy's advice.

I suggest cobra bob's gaskets. He's a car guy and just decided the the aftermarket shifters make to much noise. He makes these gaskets and real very cheap. I have them on my car and it is much quieter.
I assumeno RTV with them?
