It really depends on what you're swapping over. But overall there won't be any major problems.

He'll need the crank reluctor and timing cover from the 97 engine swapped to his 95 if he wants to keep the misfire detection and he'll need the crank hub and balancer from the F Body as well to make his accessories operate properly, correct? Also, the original water pump needs to be used as F and Y body heater/coolant hoses have slightly different routing.

But yes, as RamAir said, none of these issues are a big deal.
