Default Tranny grinding when shifting

I have an 04 ultra with a Baker DD6 . Lately I've noticed that it grinds when shifting and only when it warms up. doesn't do it cold. I adjusted the clutch and also the cable. I have the HD auto primary chain tensioner and I use standard auto tranny fluid in the primary. I use mobile 75/90 in the tranny . I have a AIM VPC installed also. Though the chain tensioner might be to tight or would a better primary fluid help?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Tim

dump the auto tranny fluid and try redline MTL, see how that works.
The MTL works very nicely in the primary for a lot of people
