Default T56 Problems.

I just got done with my T56 swap and with Mcleod Street Twin. Well after it being a pain in the *** it finally all works. I have no reverse and the throwout bearing is....loud.

Any help and has anyone else had problems like this? I can put it in reverse and the lights light up but it just doesnt move it i mess with it it starts making a slight whine/grinding noise? Is the gear gone or is it just not going in correctly.

I need help ASAP thank you!

Honestly I have no clue, but I'm just gonna tell ya that my shifter was a little stiff in the past and now I just messed something up cause I have no 5th or 6th so I'd be carefull and not push it, but I would really just get it looked at, could be something simple, could be something expensive (for me I'm hoping its the simple...and cheap part)

If your clutch is not releasing fully, that could be the cause of any/ all of your shift problems. The synchros are not going to win a battle with the engine/ clutch.
