Hopefully this is the last chapter my 'shifting improvement' series.

Post trans rebuild and bushing replacements, the car shifts pretty darn good except that it's too easy to nick reverse. I've done too many times it when shifting from 1st to 2nd and when trying to downshift into 2nd.

I realized yesterday that I can get into reverse and 1st easily without having to put any extra effort into moving the shifter to the left. Before adjusting the shifter I remember having to put a little effor into getting it over that far.

Does the overall amount of resistance that should be felt from the springs get affected by where the shifter is in relation to it's connection to the bar going through the firewall? In other words, if I adjust the shifter such that I have to move it farther to the left to get it into 1st or reverse, will that force more tension on the springs?

Did I explain that in english? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
