The knock sensor is the wire that comes out from underneath the lower intake manifold.  The sensor itself is screwed into the block in the valley between the heads.  If/when you swap engines, replace the knock sensor.  Its like $30, and it really sucks to put the engine all the way in, and find out you're geting a knock code, when nothing is really wrong.  When you get the knock sensor, just get the one for the '95, it'll thread into the block no problem. 

IIRC, I had a couple of other wiring connections that weren't quite right, but I just cut and spliced connectors from either the donor harness, or off the components I was replacing from my truck ('91)  I also put in an '88 v6.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "
