Years ago I did something similar and hit 1st from 2nd on a speed shift. The Muncie lived to see another day but the core on my 396 shifted. Later it felt like I'd lost 50-60 hp. A rev limiter wouldnt have helped but a better shifter would have. Id definately look into a better shifter. Call it cheap life insurance!
