Krusty,
Sorry to hear about it. If it popped once it'll keep doing it till it's fixed. Drive it straight over to Scottsdale and let them go for it. The good news is that it is a well documented problem on some of the earlier cars. If memory serves me correctly, they don't swap the transmission anymore but do open it up to fix the first gear syncros.
Good luck and keep us posted.
