tranny shifting problem

hey guys,
i went to the track this past weekend and pulled some pretty good times
for what little i have done. My best 60 foot was a 1.9 but i missed 3rd that run. my next runs all grinded 2nd but went in. this is my problem. could anyone tell me what the problem could be. it has done this before, but never as hard as this weekend. i dont know much about transmissions. any help would be great. could this be something with synchronizers or something?
also alot of times when it is started from a cold start it wont go in to any gear.
thanks in advance
jon

does your car have a t-45 or a t-3650 trans? If it has a t-45...get it looked at its the syncro. dont want to scare you My t-45 did the same thing right before it blew. If you have a t-3650....it might not be anything at all. You can check out the sticky "Tremec 3650 issues" at the top of the treads page on more info. it seems that a lot of the 3650s do this...good luck

well it turns out that my car has a tremec in it from the previous
owner. I dont know which one it is. I think the problem is that i bought a short throw shifter for what i thought was a stock trans, but really wasnt.( if im correct, borg-warner comes stock?right?) so the best solution right now is to put the old shifter back on until i figure out which tremec it is. there is a serial number but i couldn't find a tremec site. could any of you guys help me with this.
thanks in advance

here is the tremec site. but it's not that technical. From what i know 2000 is t-45 and 2001 1/2 plus is 3650 that is just being issued a tsb.
mine was grinding 1-2 shift at hign rpm but was still going in. And after a couple of month the 2 was poping out so ford service it and every seem good for now.

i got the service manual for the 3650 somewhere from the web. it change a bit it seem with the tsb but it's better then nothing
