but sometimes when i shift to 5th gear under WOT i hear a sound, i actually need to replace the syncro.
the question is, is this sound caused by the short shifter ? :/ :/

but know the 4th grear is working well, ALONE & ALONE i didn't take it to some tuner or dealership ... but why he worked alone and from 24 hours was not working ????
the tuner told me that its the SYNCRO is that true ???
Short shifters are always notchier, shorter throws at the expense of more leverage (force) needed to shift. Its why I never run them, I hate them. In previous cars I have also grenaded tranny's in 1 month of use, the fulcrum point gets changed and its not always optimal.

4th Gear any way .. be carefull guys...
Sorry to hear you had that much trouble.
My Neighbor growing up had one on his Stang.
I was never a big fan, and he constantly had tranny trouble with it in.
Glad you took it out.
Good luck with your car man

Chances are you do NOT shift any faster or better with it. . .

And another line of thinking could be, if it helps make up for lack of shifting skills then couldn't it help improve a driver with good shifting skills?
I know for a fact it decreases my time between gears!
I think tranny issues are more of a product of driver abuse than B&M's short shifters.
