Joe,
what you might need is one of my "AMAZING PART-TR6" , see ebay item number
2488750872.
Thisa is an adjustable clutch slave cylinder clutch pushrod. This lets you
get the exact
clearance you need between the pressure plate and the throughtout bearing.
This will also save your
thrust washer.
I have sold about 2 dozen of these items and I get emails back stating that
the buyers like them because they
can easily get the perfect clutch pedal feel.
Good Luck

I suspect that you have checked such things, but just in case -- Is the
clutch releasing all the way? May be dragging, but with synchros in the
forward gears, it may go in ok, but with no synchros in reverse it is a
problem. Also, could be the pilot bearing dragging, keeping the tranny
spinning just enough to be a problem. Nothing in the tranny should be
spinning if the clutch system is working right.
I went to a hydraulic release bearing this year, but forgot to tighten the
bleeder all the way. The first symptom that I had a problem was
difficulting getting it in reverse. Bleed the system and tightened the
bleeder and all was good. Joe(B)

I have a peculiar problem with my transmission and maybe somebody can give
me some ideas on what to investigate. It's a standard transmission, close
ratio gears.
The problem is that it shifts well, it goes into all gears well, but when I
try to put it into reverse while standing still, it doesn't want to engage
and the gears grind a lot.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
