when running through the gears like you said start in 1st gear low then switch to high let off gas (can clutch if you want) and then get back on the gas (in my 61 chevy it says on the sticker to shift it from low to high then let of gas count 1... 2... then get back on gas) but rememeber when you go the the next gear say your in 1st high push in clutch shift the transmission to 2nd then switch it back to low and let out clutch
