Wes,
Same here. The Hurst shifter fixed some of the high rpm
"grinding"...but it's still a "truck tranny"...no way around that.
(I miss my Muncie - 6500rpm and clicks right into the next gear.)

I have a 97 and I've found upshifting at very high rpms into next high
gear can sometime grind em... But never really had a problem with
reverse... I honestly cant think of a time its even grinded...

Robert,
I have a 98 5 spd. I have found it very easy to hit reverse when
shifting
out of 5th. I think it is a design flaw, but have just learned to be
careful.
Also installed a Hurst shifter which helped some.
