Need to know more about the rpm's, are they hitting 7500 rpm's then creeping to 8000?  If so check your belt deflection, and tighten up your secondary.  You maybe shifting out too fast.  Yes, the 98's did have a lot of stator problems also.  I think your TRA should be on clicker #3 from the factory.  clicker #5 is too steep in my opinion.  Always start on #3 and work from there.  Your primary spring should be replaced if you haven't done that since new.  I would try the secondary first, then replace the primary spring.  It wouldn't hurt to replace the secondary spring also.   I replace both the secondary and primary every year.  Cheap insurance.

slarson,  I would put money on the primary spring.  For about $20.00 it should fix the problem.

slarson, glad to hear it was minor.  How did that darn spring get in there?  LOL..
