So... how strong is the 92 5spd tranny? not sure the code if they have different trans, mine would have been bundled w/ the 2.4 sohc fi motor.
is there anything with these motors/trans i should know about? sucky stuff...?
all i really know is these things were quite well built for their time

well i'm not that knowledgeable about transitions but I've heard the 5 speed is pretty solid until around 250hp. I haven't tried that much power but the five speed in my raider has survived quite a pounding. If your truck is 2 wheel (which your caption looks like it is) i believe starion transmitions are almost a direct fit. I understand that they are good to around 400 hp unmodified. thats just my two cents
good luck
