ok i know why im sounding like a singer sewing machine. but my trans is really hard to shift and rev is grinding so im asking if i need my other trans box from home or can this be fixed with a simple ajustment?

Sounds like a clutch problem. Does the car want to creep when it's in gear with your foot on the clutch?

No did once on high rev but not any time else

silvey19k, the symptoms you are talking about is exactly what my car did for about 3 weeks before the master cylinder for the clutch went bad. I am going to replace all the parts the master the slave and the hose on the car this weekend.

You can see the discussion in this thread. Here

You can try bleeding/flushing the clutch with new fluid. I always shift into 3rd and then quickly into reverse to prevent the grinding.

Hard 2 shift = clutch not fully disengaging. IS typically a lot worse on reverse and can cause grinding. Throw a new slave cylinder at it for $20 or less, bleed it good, 20 minute job tops, and if that still doesn't fix it, rebuild your master.

ok sweet im having the shop bleed it to see whats up while they have it for the ajustment and broken cam tower bolt. and if the shop cant get it buy a quick bleed then ill just replace the slave and master might as well since im in there right. im going to be going to school for automotive but i need my skill ti catch up with this z its a diffrent animal then your b18 honda or chevy v8 the basics are the same but the l28 seems to want its own thing.
