i have a tremec 5 spd in two cars...and as excal says , ya gotta stop the gears from turning before going into reverse. i always use the rule of : FIRST FIRST.. before going into reverse ! i go into first gear ever so quickly, then it slides into reverse immediately without any grinding. otherwise let it sit in neutral for several seconds, and sometimes no grinding into reverse or a minimal amount. but FIRST FIRST works, THEN reverse.

try that before you start adjusting anything. BIll.
