    Solid motor mounts

    tranny problems

    If the clutch wasnt fully disengaging it would do it in all gears. Especially a grind into reverse. But since he is only have a grind into third i would look at 3rd gear blocker ring. Make sure its within spec and has good friction material on it. Also make sure the teeth are not all chewed...

    carrier pin won't go back in

    make sure your pinion gears are lined up with the hole. Sometimes turning the diff by the axle cause the pinions to walk a little and not line up with the carrier any more. Double check that. Other than that i havnt heard anything weird with the pin not being able to go back in.

    How much can a T5 Handle

    Sure any tranny will last you if your easy on it. If you dont boost the crap out of it. Hard launches, gear slamping kill em. Nice granny shifts smooth throttle rolling will do you good. I dont think youll have a problem if you do a simply 8-10 psi setup.

    fuel cutting in third gear???

    Sounds like a fuel volume issue. Vacuum leak would cause the car to run lean and be an issue. If you can get ahold of a fuel pressure gauge monitor pressure ramping through the gears. If it drops your most likly looking at a fuel pump. (since you just replaced your filter). When you hit WOT...
