BARTON HYBRID 3 SHIFTER ISSUE

[Cmw1414]

Just installed a Barton Hybrid 3 shifter with the reverse pull up lockout collar on my 24 Mustang GT. Its trans mounted and I love it and love how it shifts, however, after I installed it, I noticed that I will sometimes get locked out of second gear, almost like it’s hitting a wall. I haven’t shifted in the higher RPM’s with the Barton yet so it has only happened in the lower RPM range and I’ve only experienced it with second gear. The 1-2 shift has always been kind of notchy with the stock shifter but I never got completely locked out of second like I have with the Barton. Just wondering if anyone thinks it could be something simple like adjusting the shifter or if it’s something like a synchronizer or anything else?

I have no experience with this but I’d hit up Barton and maybe also look into the Barton shifter on the Mustang6g page as it’s probably pretty darn similar and there are far more installs of this shifter on those cars.
