Changed hydraulics, now I can't get into gear So after I did a clutch swap, I wasn't able to get into reverse so I replaced my master and slave with a prebled GM unit. After the swap, I'm not able to get the car into any gear. It will go into gear with the car off though.
What could have gone wrong?
P.S. - I thought it was a clutch problem, so I replaced the new disc and pressure plate for a second time and the problem is still occurring.

Yeah, it easily shifts while off.
Flywheel was resurfaced. No air in the system.
For the most part, LT1's don't need an adjustable master cylinder - especially with the two types of clutches I've used (Ram and Competition).

If it goes into gear easily with the car off and doesnt go into gear with the car on, the clutch is not releasing all the way. You either need an adjustable master or a shim.
