T56 high shift effort
When flooring it, and shifting to 3rd, it's like I hit a wall and it won't go into gear. I thought it might be me, so I practiced not moving, and it goes in fine. But at high RPM's, it's like the gate disappears. Can you think of anything that mehgt be causing this?
I have a Pro 5.0 shifter, and all of the other gears feel really notchy, but it doesn't just slide into gear, it kinda pops in and will sometimes give a little grind when shifting to 2nd.

Sounds like the tranny's just getting worn out. My T5 is like that, but ALOT worse.
