[QUOTE="GTOGreg, post: 11738035, member: 128916"] I don't understand the clutch hydraulic supposition. If it was high RPM shifting where the issue was encountered, wouldn't it also be grinding in other gears at that same high RPM? RPM is RPM and pressure is pressure, right (is it burst related???). Everyone is having trouble with 1-2, nothing else (except for those that haven't yet mastered the long-standing 2-3 Tremec "i am not a muncie" palm shift user error). I'm going to hold what I've got for now, though I do have an engine (movement) limiter coming. I didn't have this trouble with my Challenger and it had the same 6060 tranny. I suspect the boatload of torque this bitch makes. I've noticed that it happens especially coming off a turn vs accelerating from a straightaway. If I grind 1 out of 10 times on a straight launch, I grind 1 out of 2-3 times after turning and accelerating. That doesn't point to anything internal or pressure-related - that's application (and reaction) of torque. If the limiters don't fix it, I may go with motor mounts. I suspect Tremec is colluding with the aftermarket to see how many ****ing parts we will buy. Still love this car, but sick of this 1-2 bullshit. There are smarter people than me that already know the answer to this. It isn't rocket surgery. Don't make me quit my day job and come fix it for you - I ain't cheap. [/QUOTE]
