Using '97 opti/accesories on a '95 motor

'97 Motor is shot, will be replacing with a good deal on a complete engine from a '95 f-body.

I currently have a 97' with and OBDI conversion.

Can I use my optispark/timing cover on the '95 engine? I would like to keep the option of returning to OBDII in the future open, plus I know I have a good opti right now...Anything else to be aware of?
Thanks as allways...

You will need to swap timing covers and the harmonic balancer. I dunno if there is anything else that will need to be swapped over but since the '97 has the crank sensor in the timing cover, anything else underneath the timing cover will need swapped too.
