I’ ve tried adjusting the shifter when I installed the WEVO coupler but, couldn’t get it right and had to have the shop adjust the shifter.
Wondering if I should take it back this time or what other issues the transmission might have?

I experienced the same thing after a trans rebuild a few years back, difference being I retained OEM shifter and refreshed all the bushings.
A few minor adjustments of the coupler clocking on the shift shaft helped quite a bit, but end of the day I had to relearn where the transmission liked me to put the shift lever. Now, with my mind muscle connection, it shifts into 2nd like a bolt action rifle....most of the time. If it gives me any resistance, I double clutch and it goes in smoothly.
Also random hot tip for anyone. If you don't enjoy the reverse engagement crunch... put the shifter into 2nd quickly before reverse, then to reverse...no more crunch
