T5 clutch pedal will only go down half way and won’t go into gear
Hey guys I’m new here and never posted before but always referred to this site when trying to find answers on how to repair or upgrade.
I have a 1987 Camaro Iroc convertible and I recently swapped in a 350. When I did the 350 swap I also did the clutch, throwout bearing and slave cylinder.
I’ve been looking all over online and really need your help.
Previously when I shifted the clutch would go all the way to the floor. Now when I press the clutch it only goes half way down and the car won’t go into gear when running.

Sounds like you might have installed the T/O bearing wrong. Do you remember how you mounted it ???

If you did you can get it corrected without pulling the entire tranny out. It ain't easy - but it can be done.
