I think you meant to say "below 93" since 93s were 7 bolts. They actually made the change mid 92. Most factorys re-tool during the July 4th shutdown. After that they are producing the next years models. A VERY few 92s have supposedly turned up with 7 bolts. I have only seen one.
Personally if one is looking for performance on a budget the 92 is the best choice. Still has the 6 bolt motor, but has one of the better trannies and a 4 bolt rear end. You can get any of the other models, but then you would be lacking in something. The 90-91s can be made to look good (the popup light years) but you'll eventually want to upgrade the 3 bolr rear if you start to make power. Same if you get a 93-99, the 7 bolt will only take you so far while a 6 bolt will take 500 whp on stock internals. 2g has better exhaust manifold and o2 housing, but inferior head and intake manifold/throttle body. On and on...
