Figgered it out.
Took down the trans mount and it was immediately apparent that the lower/wider section of the WL bushing was protruding through far enough to make contact with the crossmember. It was obvious where it was rubbing.
So I grabbed a razor blade and trimmed off the part that protrudes through the trans mount, about 3/8", all the way across. Some people whack off that whole lower section of the bushing, but that seems drastic.
Took it for a spin and NVH-wise I can't even tell anything is different than stock, but high rpm shifts are precise as before. This is how it's supposed to feel.
