My sportys a '90 ( ha, never realized that mistake in my sig) thanks for pointing that out.
They switched to a 5 spd in '91 One aftermarket company way back, had made a 5 speed conversion but it wasn't that great. It only added an extra gear didn't change the final drive ratio much. I put a bigger trans sprocket and small rear sprocket, which helped kick the rpms down a little I'm turning about 3500 at 60, but it did hurt the acceleration a bit.
