will a 97 long block work in a 95? please help I just found a 97 long block for sale that i want to use to replace my locked up engine in my 1995 camaro 6 speed. I know that the 97 was obdII and my car is obdI but couldnt i still use the longblock if i keep my intake and exhaust manifolds? What else would i need to do to get this to work if it can. Thanks alot guys i need to go pick this up tommorow!

That is the ONLY difference from OBD1 (though the dual-cat Y-pipes were there on some 95s, there were no rear O2 sensors).To put a 97 in a 95, as was mentioned, use the 95 knock sensor, and hopefully they left the crank position sensor in the timing cover. If they didn't, just plug the hole somehow.
