Figured out why I was haveing so much trouble shifting: Pulled off the dash so I could see what was going on. The pedal bracket was flexing under the strain, a spot weld came loose. Guess that's what I get for running a dual diaphram pressure plate. A few quick welds and an extra brace, it's nice and solid now.
