What should do to ge this thing shifting better?
I just bought a M6 making 408 rwhp on motor. It has 36K on the clock, "if it is correct"
I was told it has a SLP short throw shifter and a "stage 3"
I am going to pull the T-56 and get it shifting better, it shifts OK but it seems a little rough going into 2nd and 6th.
What do you recommend for freshing it up as far as new syncro's I am thinking and where do I get the steel shift fork upgrade kit that I read about on here?
Can anyone recommend a good rebuild manual or DVD?
I have rebuilt the M-21 in my Chevelle years ago so I am nota total Newbie
I will post pics of the clutch when I get it out and measure the disc thickness, to determine if they need replaced.
What about a good aftermarket Throw out bearing?
Is there anything I can do to the short throw SLP shifter (such as better bushings) or is there a better shifter out there, that would be the better route?
Thanks in advance

They also sell the steel 3-4 shift fork upgrade.

Just print it out and you should be good to go.

The 2010 Camaros have a remove shifter linkage, which is much more isolated (less feel) than the direct shifter style that our cars use. This may be the difference you are feeling.

So was it just "notchy"?? Or difficult to engage the gear?? Was there any audible grinding noise upon gear engagement??

I just want the smoothest shifting I can for a Daily Driver Like this.

I would just try a different shifter then, such as the Pro 5.0 or MGW. I have a Pro 5.0, its a great shifter, but you still may find it too notchy. The MGW is getting rave reviews, might want to try one of those first before you tear into the trans.

If you say its notchy, could be the fluid. My car has mobile 1 ATF and its notchy when its cold. How is it shifting? If its hard to get in gear, could need new hydraulics, check out the tick master cyclinder, its a work of art and pretty much solves the hydraulics problems that plague these cars. I have one and I love it.
