Default Trans grinds when clutch let's out

Hey Boys/Gals, I have just installed a LS7 clutch pp with the LS2 flywheel (SDPC). I used a Mity Vac to bleed the system and the pedal felt fine. Now that I have started the car the trans kicks out of gear once I let the clutch out. Any suggestions? I haven't tried bleeding since the inital bleed I did 3 months ago >>>>>>>> been waiting to install rear.

There was not a problem before then I assume. Is the shifter stops adjusted properly???

Well I did have the shifter out and there are adjustable slots but I'm pretty sure I put them back in the same spot (B*M Ripper). 2nd, 4th, and 6th are ok but as soon as I let the clutch out in 1st or 3rd it wants to jump out of gear. I doubt it would be a hydralic issue since all my "lower" gears are fine.

I agree, especially since the problem is in one direction. Check your stops.
