If you have a 97 car and want a say 94 engine in ur 97 scooby then take your heads and inlet mani off your 97 engine and put them on your 93 engine. You'll have to maybe swap a few sensor over like your knock sensor but other than that the engine will then fit in with your 97 ecu and engine loom

you dont need to change the heads
you WILL need to get a 97 MY inlet manifold tho complete
