well I put the stops back in the Hurst C+ shifter yesterday and it did take out some of the slop but still have a problem with it popping out of 1st under hard exceleration and 3rd on deceleration. I got the wife to run through the gears while I watched the movement of the rods. The rods engaged each gear but I did find a couple of things. I will try and explain as best as possible.
1. When looking at the side of the trannie case and watching the shift arms go in and out of gear. Should all 4 gears have an equal amount of arm travel? It looks like first is not traveling as far back as the other 3 gears allow the arms to move. Possible solution is in question 3 depending on the answer to this one. Hope this makes sense.
2. When the gears are fully engaged should the rods be rigid? I Can't pull the rod any further into any gear but the arms "pivo" up and down with no binding.
3. This may be the answer to question 1 depending on you guys input. The end of the shift rod for the 1st\2nd selector is hitting the E brake wheel mount on the cross member when the trannie is placed into 1st gear. This was a auto to manual conversion so it has an auto cross member so not sure if the E-brake is in a different location between the auto and manual members. I am going to pull th rod off this evening and see what needs to be done to eliminate the interference.
Thanks
