Before I go on, yes I did a search on this topic and could not find answers to my questions.

I have a 1992 240 with a blown motor and I have a 1995 KA to swap in, as well as many of the engine accessories. As far as I have read this is a straight forward swap as if nothing were different, just reusing the components off my 92 on the 95 motor. Will my clutch from the 95 work with the 92 without problems, as far as I know it is identical but I want to be sure.All of the engine accessories off the 95 are in great shape, what if anything should I keep and replace on my 92? Or can I not? (alternator, starter, etc.)

Ive read several guides on KA24E to KA24DE swaps but nothing really on a swap like this, as standard as it seems. If there is anything more you feel i should know, I would appreciate it very much.

I apologize if I have asked something that has already been covered, but I could not find an answer to my questions as well as I thought I could by asking here. Thank you in advance.

all should be fine, you might wanna keep the 92 cams as they're more aggresive(more powwer, tho am not sure if its 91-93 or without 92). it should be a straight forward swap, that is if that 95 engine is still a OBDI and not OBDII, if it is OBDII you will have to swap the intake manifold from the 92 to the 95(but it is most likely an OBDI). the accesories should work just fine.(i did same swap myself.....)
