my 901 grinds bad going into 2nd gear while driving. Goes in fine if stopped. Is this for sure the synchros, or could it be an adjustment of some kind?

Its the dog teeth and slider that have worn out and have rounded ends because the synchros are worn out.

The full monty...4-5k.
Simple quicky...search for Dr Evil.
On his signature is an article how to take out the gear stack and ship it to him to repair.

Look up DNHUNT in the classics thread forums to see picture by picture how to take it apart and put it back together again..

Tail shift or side shift?
I have a couple of side shifters.
There also some of us around that could help you fix yours or get it fixed.
You should join us for the "The May Sacramento Porsche Family Reunion" this Sunday May 31st.

Do a member search for Dr. Evil. I just had him ship me a trans and he may have another one ready to ship. He has a great reputation and it will cost you way less then $4000.
