they plug right in, nothing to change
a 95 PCM is different, 96 -99 will plug in, but the 96 has to have 2 wires swapped to operate the fans. 97-99 are all interchangeable.
ATX and MTX computers have the same plug.
maybe you got a 95 PCM ?
smaller with a single plug

^^^You have to swap pins, not wires for the 96 to 97-99 conversion.

You need a 97-99 PCM and yes you can put a DOHC PCM on it. It will run a little rich, but not to bad.
