Default Problems with shifting at high RPMs

Ok heres the story , I put a new motor in , new clutch , all new hydraulics. The problem did not exist before the new stuff. I cant shift at redline. It wont go into gear until the RPMs fall to 5K , then I can shift. Its frustrating as all hell . I have great pedal pressure , shifts like butter under 5K RPMS. It was pre-bled , I did the drill mod , and bled it ONCE after I got it together. New Dextron 3 in the case .


Do you guys think I need to re-bleed ? Im stumped !

I'd bleed it again... sounds like you might still have some air in there.

Maybe the tranny is moving too much at high RPM's? Check your tranny mounts.
