Default 3.1 swap

hey folks i got a quick question im swapping in a 95 3.1 into a 98,looks like a easy swap only prob i can see is the egr valves are different 95 motor has a 4 wire connector and 98 has a 5 wire connector i wanna do this swap right can i just switch the egr valves around or will i have to swap the whole intake manifold?
thank you for any help you can offer

If your gonna spend the money to swap in a new engine just put the L67 in there. If your gonna go through the time, effort and money might as weel see some perfomance out of it.
