Aha, Roger triggers me:

is the slave cylinder installed in the correct position conpared to gearbox and intermediate plate?

Waldi

that's something I must look at as I should have mentioned the engine I fitted is  in a Bristol 401 and had to make up the mounting plates for the slave cylinder y so will check this thanks

And can you get it in reverse when engine is off? This may need a bit of moving with the car to align the teeth.

If so, the shifting mechanism that you worked on is probably ok. If not, I would look at that first.

Waldi

yes to all thanks
