A little follow up.
My shifter is flexing. It seams the front bushing may be shot. I communicated with Boudreau a couple of times to narrow it down. Nice guy. Took the time to educate me on the 6 speed.
I changed the console plate out and while I was there I got to investigating. You could actually see the "housing " where the four acorn nuts are flex a lot to the right once the shifter made contact with the stop block but not much flex at all to the left.
I'll be looking for a shifter later. Right now I just shift a little less agressive into 5th.
I still get high oil temps when I run her hard on the north couse at VIR. Temps hit 260 and I back off and let her cool. Water temps 220 to 230. I guess I need to pull the oil cooler and clean it out.
Thanks for all the input!
