megashifter question

i just finished installing a b&m megashifter. if i disconnect the cable at the shifter, the trans linkage moves freely. if i connect it to the shifter and disconnect it at the linkage the shifter works fine. when i hook everything up it is really hard to shift. i checked the cable and it doesn't seem to be in a bind.

Too sharp a bend?

Wrong place on the lever, no leverage?

Wrong place on the shifter, no leverage?

Pivot issues with the shifter?

Angle wrong, working against the seal?

Interference from another component, like e-brake, trans line?

Out of wags for the moment.....
