Yep, and a general rule of thumb, is 1 liter = 61.03 cubic inches.

Both of those motors are stroked 5.0L or 302s. The 94 and 95 sn95s had 5.0Ls so they should fit. I think you have to swap the older K member or get an aftermarket one. I haven't really looked it to it as I plan to build up my modular motor.
