yeah, agreed.
mine was 25,000 miles ago, and no signs of anything, so i think im alright.
I do want to check the pushrods just to make sure, as i bought the car used...
i'm working on a sweet set of blakc valve covers, with chrome bolts to go on, so whenever in install those, i'll look at the rods.

something else that will help is hand position on your 3-4 shift..
put your hand on top of your shift **** instead of grabbing it by the side for this shift..
it will keep you from pulling toward you(which is why it went into 2nd)
