I have a 93 gt with a 5 speed trans and was wondering if a trans from a 87 gt would swap right in?

Yes it will.. Although the 93 trans may be the stronger world class t5 you'll have to check the tags

They are both World Class T-5's.

But you are right. 85-89 was rated at 275 ft-lbs and the 90-93 was rated at 300 ft-lbs.
