Question about Clutch grinding in reverse

<< < (2/2)

01Lambiero:
Lengthen the rod on the slave cylinder.  Jim

tonypaul:
Try shifting into 1st then go to reverse, if that doesnt help it could be a number of things. Cables may need ajusted, on a stretch sometimes the cables get stretched too much. It could be inside the trans, how does it run/shift?

CCIE:

All,

Quick question….

Before the winter I replaced my clutch on my IFG Diablo 60. The 60 has a SBC 350 mated to Munci 5 speed Transmission with a new Centerforce performance clutch. I just pulled my Diablo from storage… Everything shifts fine in forward gears but when I put it in reverse, one can hear the gears grind and it’s next to imposable to put it in reverse, also there is a strong burning smell (not sure if it is the clutch grinding and burning or transmission oil burning) I was told to replace the clutch slave cylinder and later also advised to replace the clutch master cylinder with a high performance wildwood master cylinder….
 Has anyone ran into a similar citation and how did you resolve it? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
 
Thank You
CCIE
