Used to pick this up at Pep boys back when the rage here was using some motor oil. Worked just fine for me.

Id call Bill on your issue. When you shift to 3rd does it feel like it doesnt engage quite as far as youre used to?
Could be something simple, Bills a pretty honest character. Only know 1 guy out his way and hes about the same $.

If you do...grab a hurst or his short shifter you will absolutely love the way it feels, guaranteed. I cheaped out back in the day and got a B and M...no bueno.
Put a Hurst in my Z for the guy I sold it to. What an upgrade, you just wanna keep driving it.

3rd goes in all the way. It's just not nice to get it in, lol. I'll give Bill a call.
