I've adjusted my clutch cable 3-4 times in the past few months with minimal drive time in between. I know what the first suggestion is... the clutch tube is still attached to the tunnel. Here are my symptoms:

Shifts perfectly when cold. After a few minutes it starts to grind in 1st and reverse.
Even grinds at a full stop after sitting for 30 seconds, clutch in, 2nd gear, clutch out, clutch in, 1st gear ... crunch..

Is it possible that my clutch cable is stretching that badly? The last few times I adjusted it at the tranny side the problem dissapeared. The previous owner didn't have a pedal board installed, so i wouldn't be surprised. Now I have an Engman pedal board in.

Thanks
