Your car wont always be in higher RPMs if you shift right. I use 5th (sometimes 6th) around town now instead of 4th. I get the same gas mileage going from 342s to 411s.

Mine has lived just fine for a year of hard use now. I have had them in for 16,000 miles. Over 100 1/4 mile passes on DR's, ET Streets, and street tires. I've abused the crap outta these gears, and they've taken it all without a peep.
These are Precision 3.73's btw. I'm about to throw a girdle on and a solid pinion spacer in to go with the TCI 4000 I'm about to install. Combine that with a sticky MT ET Street radial, and we'll see if it adds up to shards of metal in the pumpkin.
Smart money says that the tranny dies first though...
