i think it might work but the timing chain and distributor will have to be from a 95 i just went through that with a 92 to a 95, and if the motor is a manual check for the crank walk if its a auto it should be fine

The break between renix & Ho was 90-91. Some have claimed it was mid 91, but I would check the production year. Either way the MJ motor is an HO.
I already swapped in my distributor, but what's the difference in the timing???
