" "
on my 1976 Triumph TR6 when shifting I get a little grinding as it goes into gear 2nd,3rd mainly. I just rebuilt the gearbox and installed a new clutch about 700 miles ago. When its cold 2nd gear is worst, then when its warmed up 2nd rear works and 3rd gear seems to grind, unless I shift slowly. Is this just tight syncros that were replaced in the rebuild. On the first few shifts of the day when I depress the clutch in all the way it doesn't go into gear until I start letting the clutch back out. Its like the syncro is lined up just slightly wrong and then when I start letting the clutch back out it lets it align and slip in. any ideas?
Thanks Tim

Sounds like a sychro problem when you rebuilt. I have always found with my gearbox, even when warm it is easy to beat the sychros so i make slower changes. Unless you fix the sychro rings the problem will only get worse
