Your bellhousing needs to to be dialed in. Its not an easy job. The tranny has to come out and you have to put a dial indicator on it. I believe it should be no more than 5 thousandths out of round. Now if the grind is not that bad, just put it in 3rd before reverse. I believe this stops the internals of the tranny from spinning and makes it easier to shift into reverse. If this doesnt help, I would have someone dial the bellhousing in, if left unchecked it will wear out bearings and seals prematurely which can run into even more money wasted down the road.

On the SPF there are several ways to adjust the clutch. Even with an internal throwout bearing. Under the dash there is a pivot that will allow several settings that will bring your pedal up and down. Its not easy to explain on the computer, you have to get under there and look around.
