Aghhhh yes, I have read that mis-shifts are the #1 death of LSx's besides the dreaded oil starvation from the stock F-body pan on track event days.
You are lucky you got away with it a couple of times.

I feel you on the shifter....the damn shift gates on the T-56 are DAMN close....too close for comfort if you are required to shift/downshift with urgency and percision

You ever install an accusump or did you mod the pan?

Anyway, good job man...I wish I was near you. I would love a ride in that thing.
