Check the service manual. It could be any number of things.

Brett has them for sale on this site. They're on CD.

I assume you checked for the obvious:
- Clutch adjustment (gotta have some play)
- Shifter adjustment: this is done with an alignment pin and adjusting the shift rod lengths.

unfortunately, the diagnosis section doesn't list the condition you're having. It does list "Slips Out of High Gear" though.

Is it only first gear that you have this happening?

for high gear

transmission loose on clutch housing
shift rod interfere with engine mounts or clutch throw-out bearing
damaged mainshaft pilot bearing
main drive gear retainer broken or loose
dirt between transmission case and clutch housing
misalignment of transmission
stiff shift lever seal
pilot bearing loose in crankshaft
worn or improperly adjusted linkage

I hate to say it, but it sounds like something is wrong inside the trans.
