Transmission whining in 4th gear

So I've noticed a whine in my 4th (and slightly quieter in 5th) gears--91 GT-S. It is not consistent, seems to go away for awhile after I've been on the highway and doesn't make the sound when cold. The sound is like an electric motor whine, and it goes up in pitch with rpms...obviously not good.

I'm going to check my tranny fluid after work today, but does anyone have any insight? Should I be pulling the tranny at the wreckers for an emergency spare?!?!

Thanks for any ideas,

Tim

Transmission was almost bone dry, shifting beautifully and running quietly after a synthetic gear oil top-up.
