my story:
my stock 95 5sfe is dead. time to swap. got ahold of a new 5sfe.
old 5sfe had the internal distributor cap ignition.
new 5sfe has the external distributor cap ignition.
my question:
what is, (if any) ecu/wiring harness differences between the two? is the engine all i need to swap out? or is there a revamped ecu? what changes to any of the harness' will i need to make, or will it be direct plug? what else do i need to know?

There IS a difference in the o2 sensors.
old 5s = 1 wire
new 5s = 2 wire
will this all match up?

well if it depends which wiring you are using, here is another difference.

you will need to swap those over, along with the distributor, ect.

congrads man! wish i could help out on this one! but i do remember being told that all the blocks are basically the same (5s,3s) and that you can interchange sensors... (the one near the pump specifically) ive even seen a guy using a 3s head on a 5s block and make 600+ hp

its not a problem swapping a diffrent gen, just use the old accessories off the old motor.

is there a wrightup on wiring in the new acc? i'd really like to ditch the cali-emmision BS; as i live in texas where emissions dont matter. (yeah, the whooping 5hp difference
)
honestly i like the idea of the external better.
i've been searching, but supprisingly, there are very few 5s(ca) to 5s(norm) swaps being done. I may just be a one of a kind
(bragging rights
)

not really, it happens alllll the time. ive done a couple, both 5s and 7a.
just FYI, the external ignitor stuff is on the cali spec motors and all the 96+

yeah i know, i just wanted to feel special.
thanks for rainin' on my parade
is there a way to find a code on the engine itself to track down year/gen/application it is?
also thanks for the help/heads up; and hopefully i'll have this done soon.
