[QUOTE="racerat, post: 782296, member: 3914"] Dana, thanks a ton for the info. The problem was the shift lever...it didn't grind or anything...just wouldn't go into position unless you really forced it. It's weird because for about 2 days, the car shifted normally again..then last night it got so bad trying to force it into gear I actually hurt my hand. :rolleyes: Bought a new clutch today and compared the throwout bearings. The old one spun freely but the new one doesn't spin as easily. Which is normal? They're both Motorsport heavy duty clutches. Just to amuse you folks some more...we rounded off the bolt on the top of tranny and had to lift the motor to get it out. The last clutch was installed by the Ford dealer and they must have used some super duty loc-tite to put that bolt in. Broke one of the exhaust manifold bolts and two of the dowel pins on the flywheel too. My garage looks like a Mustang salvage yard. :nonono: [/QUOTE]
