Who was the person who told you about world class T5s? If it was a user here, post their name. The community should know. World Class T5 is 1985 and newer. The phrase world class is usually used to get uninformed people into thinking an older '85/86 transmission is newer or better than it really is. Look up in the link below the number stamped on a dogtag bolted to the side of the transmission, it starts with 1352-11. The link below will tell you where the transmission came from.

Less than sincere sellers often remove this tag and come up with a story so they can sell an older, less desirable transmission as a wonderful world class unit.
