You can try it out but I'm guessing your gonna wanna swap it out after like a day.
Congrats on your motor swap, & I also agree 100% with the above. I at one point had a 95 GT & I put 373's, which was oe of the best mods I ever did to that car. You gained a stronger chasis & comfort with the 94, but also put on some weight, so the 373's will be a good choice.

I haven't put swapped over to the 3.73 yet, but it's on the my list of things to do. I'm actually somewhat pleased with the performance (Gas Mileage) that I get right now, but I know once I take it the track that it will light a fire under my @$$. To answer the other question; I rebuilt the motor and hopped it up last year when the engine was in the 1990 and it ran great for about 2 weeks. After that two weeks the MAF went bad, O2s needed to be replaced it need weather strip all around and some body and interior work. The 94 was just a cheaper newer solution for me. The Fox will be dearly missed, but the sn-95 has not disappointed me yet.
