63falcondude, I can relate to a point and let me give you a quick back story on myself. I started driving stick when I was 15/16 and been doing it since. (33 years old now and a big rig driver), it took me sometime to get used to it, was doing the bunny hop, over revving, stalling, etc. for a long time as well, but gradually became second nature. But what helped most was being a kid, I had a farm and back roads to drive on, we used to drive the crap out of that old Datsun. We got used to shifting by sound, and forgot about missing shifts and stalling. What I'm saying, but not saying at the same time is, maybe you need to do a spirited drive and go through a couple of gears quickly a few times to get rid of that stress. Just be safe if you happen to. From what you've said, it seems like its the only thing you may have not done.


When I first got my '16 SS M6 I did not have the NPP just the stock exhaust, it wasn't loud enough for me to tell where the shift point was, so I went out and got a deeper exhaust because it was really bugging me that I had to watch the rpms when shifting.
Seeing you have NPP are you driving with the exhaust in stealth mode?

One last thing, the dead zone in the throttle, I noticed it too and I despise it. I'm getting a throttle controller for it, as it is supposed to eliminate that lag/dead zone. That could be a consideration to look into?
