Welcome to NICO!

I did some searching around, and while I couldn't find a definite, definitive answer, I'm 99% sure that it should be a routine job. If you can't find serial #'s then at least try to verify that all the casting #'s (case, bellhousing, output etc.) are the same.

I think you'll be fine... I pulled the part numbers and they are the same from 12/94 to 1/96 build dates.
