What kind of tranny does my 87 5.0 5 speed have. What would cause a grinding when shifting from first to second but only under hard acceleration/ burnouts?

My 87 Trans does the saem thing. It is perfectly normal when cruising, but always grinds on the 1-2 up shift under hard acceleration.

i'm glad u answered this one, i didn't want to and seriously guys is it that hard to use the search feature and read a few other tranny threads and commare they're problem to yours???grinding means bad clutch/misadjusted or a bad syncro depending on the situation, it's not rocket science it's just a transmission

true, but they can look it up and compair and then say well i read this and i think this is the probelm am i right... or i read this but i don't understand exactly whats wrong and how to fix it can u explain it a little more.... it would be nice if people attempted to solve they're own problems from time to time, or made it look like they did atleast a little research

i wont argue w. that... i miss the days of the hard trans questions, lol. now its all syncros and clutch ****, w. the ocasional bearing problem
