You are going to need to swap for the 2 coolant sensors, either tap a new hole or swap over from your k8. Since it's a 95, chances are it's obd2, meaning you might have to swap over some of your k8 sensors that are different and find an obd1 ecu. The best thing to do is look at both engines and figure out what is the same and different before you drop it in because most sensors will be alot easier to swap while the engine is out of the car. Most issues will be covered in the v6 FAQ, so take your time and read through that so you know what to look for and what to expect.

This has been covered a zillion times. No such thing as OBD1 or 2 ZE's but the coolant sensor thing is true. Simple drill and tap the coolant neck careful not to let the drillings go down into the engine. All sensors except possibly the O2 sensors are the same. Read Colemans FAQ on swapping and then read more. http://www.mx-3.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=34783 Do your homework don't be lazy and I'm sure someone here with no life or cable TV will have the time to help answer your questions.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
