You will need to change all the external dress from the '91 to the '87. ie. the oil pump pickup tube(with the stud for the main cap support), the oil pan, valve covers, timing cover and water pump, intake manifold, and likely a few other items someone else will remember. You will basically be using only the long block portion of the '87 motor-block and rotating assembly, heads and valve train.
