Nah, you'll end up banging it into the wrong gear. The syncros will whine and then the engine will end up wailing. It hurt. Then you'll realize you accidentally gave it the money shot. I mean money shift. And you'll have a blown engine on your hands and an upset Tranny on the bed. Fluids everywhere. Super weird.

Valid point. I would not want to have to deal with a damaged tranny that I have blown.
