Hi Hope someone might have some advice?
A year ago I replaced my gear linkage with the Stomski Racing product which has worked perfectly up until yesterday. The car has a relatively low mileage at 110k miles so I don't thinks its the gear box.The car only gets driven about once a month, and when I got into it yesterday I couldn't get reverse. After a bit of fiddling I got reverse and got out of the garage. When up to speed on the open road I found I couldn't get fifth gear either, although 1st to 4th were all fine. So I suspect that the linkage needs a little adjustment? Any advice as to what needs to done here?
thanks bill

if you loosen the 13mm(i believe) you can rotate the fitting to the next spline, left or right. As well as forward backward. Usually I put the car into second or third and then adjust where you would like the shifter to be in said gear. I'd recommend shifting very slowly when test driving it, If the alignment isn't perfect you might get a few grinds.
