Default Trans Prob

I have a 93 z28 M6, and it is getting harder and harder to get my car in reverse and first. it seems harder when the car is cold. Also the clutch pedal is dead until about halfway down.

I'm wondering if this is syncros, bearings or cylinder. any help would be greatly appreciated . thanks guys

Sounds like a clutch hydraulic issue to me.

replace MC first. If fixes problem, great. If not, move to slave cylinder. Should be taken care of by then...

you might try checking your fluid and bleeding the hydraulics first, this might help some. these cars are known to have bad clutch hydraulics so replacing the master with an upgraded one would be the best bet to solve your issue.
