Crunch going from 1st to 2nd gear

Hi everyone,
I have a 96 GSR and just got a transmission from a seller off facebook.
After putting in the new tranny, I noticed that shifting from 1st to 2nd around 2500-3000 rpm would make a crunch noise and I can feel the shifter hitting something.
This only happens when shifting up from 1st to 2nd. It does not happen at all when I downshift.
I put in Honda MTF from the dealership as well. Sometimes it shifts smoothly from 1st to 2nd. But that is rare. I did shift at 2k rpm and it appears to shift just slightly smoother but with a crunch still.
Any thoughts? Is it a bad synchro
