The ST indexed systems of the 1990s was never intended to interchange with Shimano's stuff. As mentioned the cog to cog spacing was different and while a shift or two might be good after a few more the differences will add up to chain rub and/or hunting between cogs. The best long term solution is to either find old but still useable ST stuff (EBay??) or move on to stuff that is currently supported by a few manufactures. This means shifters, cog sets and ders at the least. Andy
