Default '98 3.8 into a '95

I am about to get an engine from a 98 camaro w/3.8 to install into my '95. Will it require any different parts?Electrical, computer? Or, is it just a simple swap?

Do you have a 3.8 in your 95? If so its a simple swap. If you do not have a 3.8 is a pretty major project. You will need a pretty complete doner car. You going to need the K-member, transmission, complete computer system and most of the sub systems.

Yeah, I've got a 3.8 in the '95. Just wasn't sure if anything had changed. Hopefully, this will be an easy swap. Thanks for the reply.

I do not know the details on the 95 3.8 but I did do a 2002 motor into a 1996. I just needed to swap the upper intake and a few other parts. You going out the bottom?
