we dont have any info on these but as this is gm of england it may be similar to a cobalt or mallibu andit takes 2 converters off the engine different mounts and different computer as it's a 6 cylinder not a 4. You may also need a K memeber and different axles. so your answer is it takes alot of mods to upgrade to that,plus the 98 is an OBDII and the 94 is ObD1so you would need a different wiring harness as well.
