My horribly abused '85 SPG (well, it's been greatly improved since I got my hands on it, but I digress) barely made it into 5th when I first got it, and ground like hell doing it. I mulled it over and after reading some stuff on this board, changed it. It smelled like there was gear oil in it, so I flushed it twice with Mobil 10W30 (not synthetic), and then put straight 30W non-detergent in it. It improved quite a bit immediately after I changed to the 10W30 for flushing, and has only continued to get better untli now. It will still grind if you shift quickly from 4th to 5th, but if you just shift nice and easy, the way you're supposed to, it's fine.
