James - that is my opinion with respect to shifting as well. I can upshift much better (in general - not specifically with the '67) with only partial clutch or no clutch at all. My rev matching skills on downshifting can definately use improvement (and assistance via the clutch). Since the whole package (engine, transmission and clutch) were fresh I was trying to "take it easy" on everything at the time - relatively speaking.

Transmission fluid is Rockland spec Tranzilla fluid.
