I'm sorry you must be driving a honda . Somebody ocne told me "If 3rd gear doesn't grind it's not a honda transmission", replace 3rd gear and the problem will go away. Check other things like clutch engagement etc.

depends on what kind of racing your doing on the particluar ratio your going, i would just check to make sure the clutch is engaging all of the way

did it start grinding right after you did the clutch job? if so, i'd adjust your clutch cable, assuming you have one. also, gm syncromesh tranny fluid could help a lot.......lots of info on this stuff if you do a search
