They will directly swap over so long as you keep the manifolds and sensors from the recipient vehicle. The long blocks are the same with the only difference being that newer cars have a provision for a crank angle sensor that is not present on earlier engines. I think it is welded to the oil pan ( which is why you can't use a pan gasket on later cars and must instead use silicone to maintain the proper air gap) so you an just choose not to hook it up in the older car. Also, some cars have a 4 bolt crank flange and some a 5 bolt. I think the later ones are 5 bolt. My 91 has a 5 bolt engine in it and works just fine. I have no idea what it came out of as it was there when I got it.
