Wont go into reverse
I did a clutch swap 18 months ago, but stored the car for 15 of those while overseas. Since the swap it has been hard to get into reverse, had to pull forward a foot or so to get into reverse, but now it will not go into reverse at all. Today I changed my tranny fluid to RP, did the anti venom mod and even went to a modded stock shifter from a B&M. I have an 2001 Z06 with 94k on it. I didnt do a full shifter alignment but bolted the shifter back in with a drill bit in the alignment hole. What else could it be preventing from engaging reverse? Never grinded my gears or anything. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I did a full alignment and it worked. Lost a torq socket in the tunnel plate but well worth it. When I swapped shifters I loosened the bolts and retorqued. This time I took it all out and checked the linkage, and it goes into reverse again. Thanks for the help.
