from wikipedia:
In 1985, the problem with insufficient power was first addressed, much to the satisfaction of the general public. A Chevrolet 2.8 L V6 engine rated at 140 hp (104 kW) was put into the car, satisfying most critics of the base engine. The High Output V6 was paired with a modified Muncie 4-speed transmission. The 4-cylinder engine (known as the "Iron Duke") was now paired with the Japanese-designed Isuzu 5-speed (also produced at the Muncie, Indiana plant).

According to everything in print I've read all the Fiero transmissions were built at the Muncie plant. I'm not confused about what I've read. I said Isuzu designed the 4spd as well as the early 5spd. That articles gotten some recent updates; I've gotten it in search engines before. It used to have a really nice pic of the 89 prototype on the lawn of GM headquarters next to a black 88GT; the trans code ID table is new; and the history and description are longer than they used to be. It says it was a modified Muncie. Isn't just equally as possible that wikipedia's source flipped Muncie Modified with Modified Muncie? All I know is I've got a book full of OE part #'s for specialty tools produced shortly after the car hit the road, and Wikipedia wasn't even invented yet.
