What sort of computer control do you think the ECU would have over.

A Shift Fork operated by a Hand
and
A Mechanical Clutch operated by a foot.

Was thinking that but they were marked after the sts was installed and it was working fine, installed the cable clamp and followed the markings but still can't hit it but she's at the dealer for the fuel pressure issue ill bring it up tomorrow.

My transmission shifts harder when my car goes into limp mode, but it an automatic transmission, not manual.

c5 corvettes have solenoids that lock you out of 2nd and 3rd and force you into 4th at certain rpms.... so it is possible.
