Question T-56 question

Last weekend (nine days ago) I talked to one of you LS-1 guys about my tranny in the Dark Shadow Gray Cobra. It was not wanting to go into 5th on a DS and was hard to get in on the US. I since changed the shifter and put in a firewall adjuster for the clutch to no avail. It still is giving me problems. PM me with a number so we can yak about it further if ya remember the discussion. I believe you worked at or owned a tranny shop that did T-56's. Thanks.
