Pro 5.0- post installation observation/question

I just installed a Pro 5.0 shifter on my T56. I noticed that it doesn't return to center neutral by itself when it is pushed into the left gear bank (1 & 2)..it'll get slightly hung up in between 1&2 - 3&4. And when I say "hung up", I mean I barely have to touch it to get it to go into center neutral.

When I was installing it, the cup looked fine, no visible damage, and this did not happen with the old stock shifter (non-hurst).

What do u guys think?

I had the same issue. The springs are weak. I think on one side I shimmed it with a bolt that I modified. There are a few threads on here about doing this.

Thanks for the heads up. I can't find anything on this on the forum (search option doesn't work well for me). Do you know any links offhand, or which section?
thanks

The best forum to seach is the manual transmission forum:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/manual-transmission-14/
Search "Pro 5.0" & you should find what you're looking for.
