Default lt1/t56 prob.

So went out to race a guy tonight from a dig and dropped it at 3500...it didnt seem right taking off and I had to pull and push pretty hard to get it into 2,3,4. So after I win I pull over to see what the deal is. I started it up again and tried to put it into gear...every once in a while it will pop in...BUT...when a push the clutch pedal in it doesnt disengage at all. Is it possible that I just blew the clutch apart or what do you guys think....thanks in advance.

How does the pedal feel? If soft you may have a hydrolic problem. If theres a problem with the disk or pressure plate the pedal could be more difficult than normal to push.

The pedal still feels the same as it did before but it just doesnt disengage the clutch at all. No matter if the car is started or not though it's crazy hard to get it to go into gear. I'll find out what's goin on this weekend and post what i find.

Sounds like either a hydraulic issue or even a clutch issue .
