I preordered a mc08 adapter several weeks ago. upon receiving it day before yesterday I noticed there were no gaskets. So today I called to find out why no gaskets. First Kyle wants me to send him a picture of what I received. I didn't understand why? then he tells me he has to got talk to his manager about it. When he gets back on the line with me he explains that they didn't have the gaskets for the kit so the sent me a tube of grey rtv silicone. I told him I didn't want to put it together like that. There is a gasket for it. I want to put it together right. HE then proceeds to tell me they are not match machined surfaces and that it is better to use silicone. Bottom line here to me is I paid a premium price for these parts and I'm not interested in using silicone where there is supposed to be a gasket. I never had any problems like this years ago. Back then I was dealing with Dean Smith. Rest in
peace my friend you are dearly missed.

Honestly you are better off using silicone in my opinion. I have no gaskets on my rig from trans to duals.....no leaks in 5 years. I do get what you are saying though.
