Next weekend I will begin swapping a low mileage 95' B230ft into my wagon. What parts do I have to switch over? I am concerned about possible differences in the distibutor, flywheel, engine sensors. Can I use the ones that came with the engine, or substitute mine ? Thanks for any insight.

    As Chris already mentioned, transfer the sensors if any numbers don't match. Count the holes in the flywheels - if there are the same number of holes leave it, otherwise transfer it.

    Substitute the engine sensors and the distributor. You'll have to take off the crankshaft sensor bracket on the 95 (if it still has it) so that it'll fit.

    If the knock sensors have the same numbers, leave them. Otherwise switch those too.

    The swap is easy (a lot of work, but straightforward).
