You're right, the M90 (only used with 960/90 2.5/170 hp and 2.9/180 hp, never with the 2.9/204 hp) is a bolt on. This trans btw also was used in 940 turbos from 1995 and on but of course with a different bellhousing, modified for the red engines. The M90 has no similarities with the M4x series, it's an all new design although Volvo when launched claimed some common parts with the 850 fwd manual trans. Sync even in reverse gear is a special detail which proves this relationship.
