Were I building a layout with MTH sectional track I would use the FasTrack turnouts from Lionel. There are tutorials on how to join the two track systems. The FasTrack turnouts appear to be more reliable and they are available in two different sizes, 20"R and 27"R.

The best commercial turnouts available using the .138" rail are Fox Valley, but they are not sectional. They are also #5's so they complicate the layout design.

I'd certainly try the Fox Valley Hi-rail turnouts, it should be easy enough to make the roadbed the same height as the SHS S-Trax system. and the rail is the same; .138".  I find cutting S-Trax to fit to be a fact of life so adjusting for the #5 should be no problem...
