When im coasting down at about 40-50 and push the clutch in the tranny has a block to get into first
if u push it into it it rattles the syncros but if u wait till ur slowed down it goes in fine. Is that normal??

Dunno, it does it the same for me. My first gear dosn't like when i am decelerating and not below 20mph yet.

just an old trans i would guess, my 1st -2nd synchro isnt to hot, it likes to grind when i quick shift

the tranny shouldnt grind if u shift perfect. Yah im pretty sure my transmission was rebuilt.

Generally it feels like there is a "wall" before shifting into 1st gear with a standard tranny. My Jeep, my Toyota 4Runner, and the 7 are all like that.

k well thats good.

you are pushing against the syncos i would double clutch my old turbo 12A box to get into first without a grind.

umm... don't go into first at 40-50mph. Yes its normal for it to be hard to get into first at any speed above 15-20 or so.
