The whole thing needs to be torn apart, inspected, and rebuilt cause it sounds like you have multiple problems starting wit bad synchros to possible shift fork roll pins busted to possibly even missing teeth.

messed wit it again and it will shft 1-4 and it sounds like the gear or something ratteling around in it against the other gear and shifter is tight like something is binding up and ther is no reverse you can even hold it there and nothing just grinds damn thing all this wrok ive doe and now this it was originally a 95 v6 took everything i mean everything off of a 97 gt and put on it put about 400 miles on it and now this i have no luck
