Just the small things... The heads and block should be the same... But you will now have Roller Fulcrum rockers... There are some diffrences internally, such as the piston rings, and minor bearing diffrences... But other than that it should work...
Just be super observent of anything that is or may look diffrent between the 2 engines... Good Luck and let us know how it goes..

Actually im dropping in a 95 now, and yes its gonna be a whole assembly, SC and all, all i need to know is what else do i need to buy, i mean will i need new water pumps and altenators and stuff? What about the PCM or will my hyperteched 92 pcm work?

Your chip should work. The only problem I might be prepared for is AFR. But an AFC controller can adapt for that if necessary. You might have to keep our old 92 O2 sensor, as well.
