The forum answered this not too long ago. But let's see if I have another issue.

So the answer back in April seemed to be that the cable was stretching when HOT. I adjusted and the grind went away. But a month later the TOB crapped out.

So, New TOB, Clutch, Pressure Plate, Seals, Cable, etc.... and today I drove home for lunch. Maybe 90* air temp, 230 Oil temp, 30 psi Oil pressure, 325 CHT. As I tried to back out of the driveway.... GRINDDDD. Every time. So I started the car with the clutch in and in reverse. Backed out and drove to work.

4 hours of cooling in the parking lot and NO GRIND for backing out of my parking spot. But similar system temps on the way home. Pulled in the garage and GRINDDD again as I test Reverse before I shut down.

You think I am dealing a heat related stretch again on this new cable?

Plan is to tighten it up a thread or two after it cools. Did I miss anything?

maybe a silly question, do you have 2 nuts at the adjustment end to use as locking nut? If only 1 nut on the adjustment end cable, probably it loosens little by little. And also check your clutch tube from firewall and along the tunnel.
