Noted. Thanks!

I haven't been able to get a hold of my mechanic to talk to him or see if he got the problem to replicate yet. So I have no updates on my end.

I do know that the previous owner (the person who did the swap) cut a ton of corners though, and judging by the decisions he made (that I had to have fixed) I doubt he used the proper shift carrier or selector rod.

For example, he cut a major corner and kept the M42 motor mounts for the 6 cylinder! Not to mention they were worn so badly they were an inch shorter than new!
