Default !!!! HELP !!!!!! No reverese!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Car: 71 LS% Stock
Trans: 4 speed M21 stock shift linkage

Hooked up the shift linkage now that the trans and engine are in.

Have all 4 gears but but can not get the gate (I assume) open to get into Reverse.

Looking at all the diagrams I feel I have replaced it as it was supposed to including reverse sensor switch assembly to the case.

The exploded view does not help me much trying to understand how the interlock works and also the reverse lever pin. And lastly if there is any special sequence for set up is required to get reverse to work.
