Default Problems with Toy Guy SS.....
Works great except when I run really hard in first, ~5000 rpm, and try to shift into second, and the gears grind and it wont go in!!! What going on? I calibrated it with the specific angles, is this a common problem with his SS?

Default If you still have a warranty, yyou may want to use it
and throw the stock shifter back in...

Default Revove the short shifter and bring it to the dealer, assuming you are in warranty
Otherwise, be prepared for some serious expense ($2000-3000).

Sorry to hear about this. Hope it works out for you.

Default May have been due to failure of the part that connects to the shifter..
during operation.
