Took tranny off again on Easter to inspect clutch components again. Haven't had much of a chance yet but from first glance everything looks ok.
I now have one buddy who thinks it is the differential in the gearbox cause when I jack the car up, turn it on, wiggle the tires back and forth and then push in clutch pedal and try to shift, it will eventually go into gear.
And another who says car wouldn't start at all if differential didn't work and he thinks its a bad clutch. My rebuttle to that is I drove for 890 miles before this happend. Hopefully tonight I can get to inspecting clutch.

Well.......found out the horrible, well..not so horrible truth to whats wrong with my shifting problems.
It was the tranny. Apparently one of the forks that slides from neutral to whatever gear (probably 1st) broke so it will not go into neutral anymore. I'm not 100% sure yet, I have to have my buddy crack open the gearbox and make sure but I'm about 99% sure thats what it is.
When we pulled the tranny off, we shiftend the tranny into each gear and twisted the shaft by hand to see if the axles would spin in the correct gear. When it came to neutral the shaft would still spin and not stop.
Luckily, I had a spare tranny throw in there, I'll post up in a few days to let everyone know what the final outcome was.
