muscless Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 I just had new motor and clutch plate with resurfaced flywheel installed now after 1300 miles my trans will not go into 4th. And sometimes into reverse. all others are fine. Drained fluid and still no better. Any advice? All started after I finally had enough miles to get on it and had it at 7000rpm in 1st and 2nd it got stuck in 2nd for a sec and then 4th went out. Yes motor is built for the rpms. LS6 with MS4, forged and ARP bolts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twistedfocus1647545489 Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Unless you changed your shifter to one with overtravel stops (I don't think the factory Hurst has them), you may have bent the shift forks muscling it into gear and possibly caused the synchro keys to come loose (if its sticking in/out of gear but moves when its actually in gear). If it's working fine at rest but not high RPM, then it probably needs the clutch shimmed to disengage properly, or it could be a hydraulics issue like Zane had.

muscless Posted July 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 its a spec stage 3. same as I had just replaced the disk its self sice it was out. Yes it will go if the car is off. Think John Rutan updated my hydraulics when he did my clutch a 8 mo ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokin5s Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 have you made sure that the master / slave cyl doesn't have any air bubbles in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ls1plus Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 Let's take it out, shoot a few hundred rounds into it, then send it in for a core. You are going to eventually break it anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
