Shaker Trim Ring Gasket?
« on: July 30, 2012 - 10:59:53 AM »
Is their a seal that goes between the trim ring and the hood for a shaker? I see mension of it in one of my service manuals but see no gasket that came with my shaker kit.

 :iagree:

Don't bother. Waste of money. I tried it and it wasn't even close.

Do you guys just run a bead of silicone or something in between?

Yup, that's probably the best thing. Or you can try to get that sealer rope stuff that's used on the heater boxes from Detriot Muscle Technologies. That's what I'd like to get and re seal mine.

Is a seal needed at all, what good does it do?
