Default Re: T-5 to flathead won't shift into gear with engine running.

Your bronze bushing might be the problem. It has no lubricating properties. You need an oilite bushing. It is oil impregnated and is the material that OEM bushings are made from. The bronze will gall up on the shaft and grab it keeping it turning.
