Re: car stalls when shifting into reverse on M6 Honestly it sounds like the clutch isn't fully released when you shift it into reverse. Maybe it is still slightly grabbing, therefore putting enough of a load on the motor enough to stall it. I don't see how shifting a 6 spd into reverse could cause it to stall otherwise.

Re: car stalls when shifting into reverse on M6 This has been happening ever since I installed this combo in my 67 Camaro. It doesn't happen when cold. (So clutch not disengaging, I doubt) You can here a slight dip in RPM and then it recovers. But, when at operating temp, it dips and can't recover unless I tap the throttle while shifting to reverse. I do have a VSS code right now, but haven't investigated it yet. It probably has to do with splicing the VSS line for my autometer speedo.
