I have a 2001 stock v-6 coupe with T-5 wc transmission. Recently added a Ford racing Hurst shifter and Steeda clutch cable adjuster set up to replace stock one and changed fluid (used right stuff). When I got car transmission felt sticky and hard going into gears mainly 1st and reverse. Now the transmission jumps out of 3rd gear or grinds or sticks between gears, especially going to reverse. I tried adjusting the new Hurst shifter twice with out results. I am assuming the trans syncros are shot.
My first question is; Do the Ford racing T-5's sold on market work with my 2001 as the tranmissions only list use up to 1999's?
My second question, is it cheaper to just get T-5 rebuilt and install with new Ford racing or Zoom clutch set. I'd prefer not to get new flywheel just resurface old one. I want to just pull tranny put it in shop and then install new clutch set and transmission myself. Or is it better to let shop do work and how much would that cost? I have put Steeda rear control arms upper and lower with new Ford Racing upper control arm bushings . I rebuilt the rear end with 370 Richmond gear set, added the ford racing LOK unit and Summit rear axles. Rear end is now a posi that feels tight and strong. I also have Ford racing lowered springs and run 18 X10 inch Cobra wheels. I don't do burn-outs, prefer to do hole shot launch.
Appreciate any answers to my above questions.
