M6 wont shift into gears correctly if the Support is fully bolted in.

So was installing a Revmount Trans Insert. I had the car in 1st gear due to being on a heavy sloped driveway, e-brake is too weak.

I loosened the trans support to try to just push in the piece. Couldn't so I got a bottle jack and lifted the trans before taking off the support and mount, using a clamp to press in the poly mount insert while it was off the car, then put it back in and bolted everything up.

Issue: When the support is fully bolted in the car, the gears are as follows:
1st: Fine
2nd: Can't go in
3rd: Fine?
4th: Can barely go in and is way to the right of 3rd, half way between 4th and 6th normally.
5th: Can't shift right far enough
6th: Can't shift right far enough

If I have the support front bolts backed off a bit it works fine, but that's improper and I lost one of the bolts as it loosened itself in a test drive.

The looser I make the front bolts the more room 2nd gear has the the closer to center 4th becomes. 2nd gear gets tighter and tighter as I bolt it in further and 4th moves more to the right.

Could I have bent the shift rod? What could be causing this issue? I realize I should have had the car in neutral now, didn't think of it at the time.

I also read something about over shift protection bolts that can be backed off but have never seen how that works.

Found the bind: right below the shift rod where the oem bend is there's a cylindrical wart on the tr6060. It's hitting because the mount raised up that end of the transmission I think. Not sure the fix.

That's really odd, can you post some pics of the mount in place, curious to see if there is something different on you setup. A lot of guys run that insert without issue.
