    Your car should have a 3650 in it not a t-45.

    Something like this would work. And it has a little something extra attached to the front of it.

    Apparently all stock or rebuilt 3650s break. Good luck finding someone to work on them. D&D Performance (http://www.ddperformance.com/) and Hanlon Motorsports (http://www.hanlonmotorsports.com/)
    (two reputable nationwide manual tranny dealers) don't even mention the 3650 on their websites. T-5, TKO 500, 600, 3550 and T-56. That's it. They must be some scarry sumbitches to work on.

    I suggest you look for a used TKO500 or T-56.

    Not exactly sure yet. He was pounding on it and now it wont go into second. Only sometimes. The fork probably isnt broke as it does sometimes shift. I am leaning towards a toasted slider or shift pad inserts not allowing full engagement of the 1-2 slider.

    Are you still running the stock shifter on your 3650? If so that could be part of your problem right there, that along with driver error.

    Put a cobra 6 spd in it hehe. Like I said jp, I ran the shit outa mine and they might be hit or miss with the strength. I nitrous fed mine on a wot switch and would dump the clutch around 48-5200 at the track. Never had any issues. I had a steeda tri-ax shifter and put the heavy duty trans mount in the car as well.

    I would have recommended Hanlon also but troll claimed he didnt do anything with 3650's. I figured he would know since he has one

    Well, mine isn't so bad that I've started making phone calls. I never spoke with Hanlon, but if you check out their site, there is NO mention of the 3650 anywhere???

    I was just making an assumption, I guess.

    Buy the Viper-Spec T-56 that Burntire has for sale on here. If you're planning on keeping the car, that tranny should last you forever. :)
