I installed my Pro 5.0 today and love it except for the noise when the clutch is engaged. I didn't replace the boot that was around the base of the stock shifter's stick but did put the #6 boot back. Is the lower boot worth putting on the Pro 5.0? What other solutions have you guys tried to get rid of the noise?

 

tighten the 2 bolts that attach the shaft.......

mine kep coming loose evry now and then.....
so i got a bm ripper

 

I tightened those before I put the shifter on. Are those what cause the noise or is there another source?

 

thats what cause my noise......thats why i got bm ripper

it came totaly loose on highway and i had shifter in my hand and i could shove it up my ***......it was a scary moment

tighten it alll the time

i dont know if it was only mine or if someone else has these probs

 

If you use Loctite Red on the screws that holds the stick on that will cure the loosening problem.

Also, to sure the noise (I don't like it myself) I read somewhere that you can make a sort of gasket out of rubberized gasket paper from an auto store it and place it between the shifter and the trans. I remember it said it works perfectly.

 

Do a search for the Rob mod over on LS1.com I have it and it sure the the noise. I also have the rubber boot pullued over everything. I still get noise as my rpm's get up there. THeres just nothing you can do about it I think.

 

theres one thing u can do....sell it and get bm ripper like i did

i couldnt stand the noise it drove me crazy
