You can get the synchros for $300 or less. I bought a kit from eBay that came with synchros, bearings and seals. With the help of a factory service manual it was no problem.

You could buy carbon fiber synchros for $300+
Or you could buy the eBay kit for less then $300.
-OR-
You could buy a junkyard transmission and risk the same issue.

And before anybody says anything about an eBay rebuild kit- it's a hell of a lot better then grinding isn't it?
