Default Car will not go into second!! Help!

I tried the search but it is not working...
Last night while driving I started to notice that it was becoming more difficult to get into second. By the end of the night second was impossible. It feels like it is not engaging all of the way, or if it does, it pops out when you let out the clutch. Would this be the sycronizers?? Do they make a heavy duty rebuild for the corvette T56?? Thanks

How many miles are on your car? Also, have you deactivated the 1-4 skipshift solenoid?
