Default questions for those of you with a Tick

I've got one. I've adjusted it like the directions say, and then some. I still can't power shift past 3rd gear effortlessly. 1st and 2nd are fine, thirds notchy, fourth is a crapshoot if it will go in gear. Pedal hangs on the floor after speed shifting. What I mean by speed shifting is bring it up to redline then shift while letting off the gas between shifts.

Clutch is a LS7, been bled a few times, adjusted different ways.

Any help.

Sounds like more of a slave cylinder or pressure plate issue to me.

I guess over the winter I'll get a new LS7 clutch and another new (slave cylinder ).

After my previous clutch change my shifting was noticeably more notchy than it had been. Nothing fixed it until I did a minor rebuild to replace the usual culprits. Now it shifts smooth again. Something to keep in mind if you have to pull the trans any way. It's not that difficult.

The tranny's been rebuilt already. I think it's time for a vette.
