Stuck in 4th gear!! OK I got the break in miles on the new ls7 clutch I installed and I decided to give her a run. Everything went great until I slammed it in to 4th gear at about 6k. It didn't come back out of it. I hit the shifter a couple times and ended up knocking it out but... everytime I put it in there now it gets stuck and 3rd gear it pops out of 3rd gear sometimes. What do I need?? And whats the problem??

Great. What vendor has the best rebuild packages on this sight? I would like to get a package and do it myself rather than ship it off.... Anyone have any suggestions?? Vendors??
Car is pushing a little over 400rwhp and trq. 10 bolt(not for too long especially as quick as I am breaking stuff). LS7 clutch w/ little over 300 miles on it. full bolt ons.

I recommend Tick Performance. I ordered their level 2 kit and installed it my self. Mine wouldnt go into 3/4. Ended up there wasn't fork pads on the 3/4 fork. Kit came with new 1/2 & 3/4 syncro assemblies, new carbon fiber blocker rings, steel 3/4 fork, and billet 3/4 keys, also brass fork pads and i ordered the new snap ring kit since mine had almost 100k on it. Works amazing and personally I found it very easy to install. Only problem I had was the i had to find a press to press on the new syncro assemblies for 1/2 and 3/4.
