Now that the 3.0 is running fine / running not moving.... I can’t seem to get the gears to engage unless the engine is off. We adjusted the slack out of the cable to the degree that it took a gorilla's pedal pressure to depress it / and i caved in the firewall tube in the process. Kennedy Engineering said a Stage II clutch on a conversion has a higher pedal pressure to depress it but not anything as significant as I am experiences.

I have Rich Johnson's shift rod so that is the only thing in the shift linkage that is new or different and I can get the box to dry shift all gears but get a harsh crunch if an engagement of any gear is attempted while depressing the clutch if while the engine is running. . Any thoughts or procedures from sage experience ans this s#*% just happened.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) ?
