91 5sfe to 94+ 3sgte?

[amlikon]

heres my question

i have a 91 5sfe and i am wanting to swap to a 3sgte. my question is if it is possible to swap the 94+ 3sgte into the 91 5sfe na body without changing the engine bay? or am i better off swapping the 91-93 3sgte engine into the 91 5sfe na body?

also, i was wondering which would be better for the swap, the usdm or the jdm 3stge?

you rmain issue is the fact that the Gen3 uses a MAP sensor and Gen2 does not, and the Gen3 is OBD2. you would have to do a OBD1 to OBD2 conversion; i dont know much about the conversion. I have a 91 n/a that i swapped with a gen2 3sgte into it.

the reason im asking about the gen2 and gen3 swap is because i understand that the gen3 3sgte engine is more powerful and the gen2 has problems with internals with minimal engine upgrades. the gen3 has 225, and the gen2 has 200 as i understand, is this true, and since im building into a drag/daily driver, would i have problems with the gen2 over the gen3 with citydriving when more upgrades are on the engine?
