hey guys i just installed a B&M short shifter yesterday.. because my pacesetter was getting to me..
the b&m drives and shifts really nice.. but its hard to shift.. like pretty hard... im not sure if this is how it is.. if it has to settle itself in for a while.. or if i was supposed to grease or lubricate the shifter somewhere? thanks

Get used to it. Luckily mine only does it when it's hot.

First is a bitch for me too, especially if I'm not at a complete stop.

im getting used to the stiffness.. but if greasing it will help, im all for it.

try using different tranny fluids. I've also heard that you can get the polyurethane shifter bushings and they help.... does anyone else have experience with these?

i already have redline mt90 tranny fluid... i was just curious if you were supposed to grease the B&M shifter somewhere during the installation?
