96's aren't all bad I love mine. I think the worst thing about them is the fuel pump issue though

Changed out instrument cluster to one with full gauges along with temp and oil sending units. Works great. Now I know it is running a little hot. Next will be thermostat.

That, and going back to the parts store to exchange your new '96 sensors for '97 sensors that'll fit. I've seen problems with that, but it's no reason not to own a '96
