so everything is finally together. after 13 months it looks like i will finally be able to pull the car out of the garage this coming week. there is one thing though. the tranny is completely in but shifting it with the car off is a battle even with the clutch depressed. is there any special procedure before a startup on a new tranny besides making sure the fluid is at the right level? is it normal to be like that at the very beginning? ive never dealt with installing a brand new tranny before so i have no idea.
tko question.....

when new, mine was a little tight, but smoothed out a little over time. I'm not sure exactly how tight you're talking about though.
Tremec does have a break in procedure for their trannies. I think they do not want any speed shifting or down shifting for 500 miles. You may want to call them to make sure.
