Default Pro 5.0 noise

I had a pro 5.0 shifter put in my car about 2-3 months ago. It worked great at first but it started getting really loud and its been getting progressively worse as I drive more and more. When I get on it in 1st and 2nd it starts buzzing like something is loose in there but Ive checked numerous times and every thing is solid. Also in 3rd and 4th it makes a whining noise. A couple of my friends have t56 cars and they say that the trans is just loud. Ive heard maybe pilot bearing? Please help its driving me nuts!

I have noticed also at times it sounds like a screw is loose. But i have checked it out a countless occassions and everything seems fine.

The 5.0 transmits alot more noise into the cabin than the OEM shifter. The OEM shifter has a rubber bushing that isolates most of the transmission sounds.

its easy to fix, use rtv between the shifter and chassis, also use rtv between where the top half of the stick meets the bottom half, do this and walla no more noise!
