My limited and partial efforts to help: (References are for US models)

1. Gen II ATs through 94 3.0s are essentially the same, but with Active-Trac t-case.
2. Gen II 3.5 ATs are essentially the same.(?)
3. Gen II 3.0 24V are the same as the 3.5 AT.
4. Gen II MTs through 94 3.0 interchange with Gen I V6s.
5. Gen II MTs 3.0 24V are only 95-96.

Ray, your table shows 97 MT. No such thing in US. 97 was odd year with LS and SR trim, but only 3.5 SOHC. No US MTs behind the 3.5 at all. (Though Charlie said he'd help me remedy that if I get a 3.5 to replace my 95 MT!)

What we need is a way to fit the V5MT behind the 2.6T...
