I am 99.9 percent sure that the engine and tranny bellhousing stayed the same then they went to the fuel injection. Just the head changed.
88.5 they changed the gear ratio. You will know it has the short 5th gear if the dash has square vent holes. The early ones had round vent holes. I think they got fuel injection in 90 or 91, a couple years later they discontinued in USA and brought in the tracker/sidekick.
