I've had both the B&M as well as the pro 5.0, and IMHO the B&M is a shitty shifter in comparison. It just feels so sloppy.
eh????????
Typically for shifters you just use RTV. I used the Permatex Ultra Black and it seems to work great.

the point was if he's going to be testing multiple shifters, it'll be a pain in the *** to keep removing and adding RTV...

he makes gaskets for our shifters, makes sense to get a set of these if he's going to bother testing all those.
It's just one of those things that make you say, why didn't GM make a reusable gasket...

Not to mention it's cheaper for them.
I had the factory GM non-hurst shifter and switched to a Pro 5.0 about 2 weeks ago. Its a 1000% improvement. I don't have to sit in the passenger seat and use a hammer to get it in reverse when cold now. The noise doesn't bother me, it just reminds me that I'm driving a real car.

really? i still have a bfh on hand for reverse..... im gonna turn the reverse lockout off and see if it cures it just so i know. but then gonna turn it back on since most everytime i try to power shift fithe i turn my reverse lights on and scare the **** out of the person behind me.lol
That is my suggestion to people complaining about the Pro 5.0 noise. Adjust the stops all the way out and it will stop clicking. When you go to the track adjust them back in. I don't need stops for daily driving.
