Default Over Reved?????

After I recently installed my short shifter I was in third gear, when I went to put it in forth, I hit second gear, and the rpm's went to about 9200 i then pushed the cluth in. it been almost 5000 miles since this happened. i hav a '00 civic si.

Should I worry about this?

If your car still idols fine...then it should be fine...if that doesnt ease you..take it to a local automotive shop and have them to a compression test....then you will know for sure...if all else fails pull the valves and put them on a power drill and spin...you will definatly see warpage then...

If it's been about 5k miles, then I wouldn't worry.
