I'm having trouble getting the gears to engage. Im finishing off a Suby transplant with the 901 and have a new clutch cable. I verified the clutch cable tube is not loose in the tunnel, the cone screws are tight, but no matter how I adjust the shift linkage I get a grinding into 1st or reverse. This is sitting still in the garage. So that made me think maybe it was the clutch. I didn't notice this when mating the tranny to my new clutch and throwout bearing, but the release lever isn't centered in the opening. It only goes back about 3/4 of the way and can touch the forward bellhousing. Do I need to pull the tranny and install a shim? Where should I install the shim and how thick of a washer? Thanks
