I just got a 2004 GT runs great. It has short throw shifter which I am getting used to. My issue is it's hard to get in reverse. It will grind a bit also when in reverse with clutch in if I rev engine it starts moving. Only does it in reverse. Doesn't take much clutch to start moving. I am used to cars coming up about 1/2 way before car moving this is less than quarter.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Likely the clutch is dragging. If it isn't the linkage it likely needs a new clutch.
