Here's the best you can do with a US market bolt up solution:

90 2.6 4wd pickup uses the v5m21 gearbox, with a stronger 5th gear and improved shifter on 2nd gear.

Otherwise, it's finding/making a bellhousing for a v5mt1 or importing a 2.5 diesel v4m31, or sourcing an adapter plate for another make driver's drop 5spd/tcase.

Is it possible to heat treat the gears that are weak?
Is the starion gears not worth the swap?
I wonder if the gears are interchangeable? Seems like the same transmission for this fsm but just better parts.
but then again what do I know <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />
