I believe so, though i don't know about harness wise because If I'm correct, that year did not have a distributor. so the harness might not match up...but you could just pull the distributor looking thing out and run your dist. I think.....k...I think

yep it will work. Now if it were a 96 you would have to swap the throttle bodies out cause the sensor plugs are diff.. but you should be good..
