Yes they are the same engine unless the 92 is the cpi engine. You will need to change the oil pan and also remove the oil filter relocator. They are not geared different. Are you also swapping the tranny? Those are the main 2 things I can think of right now. I'm sure someone will chime in if I left anything out
