it should fit in, but probably need diff axles and possable fitment issues with the front motor mount, you will need to reuse the stock rear bracket and mount off the motor you are swapping from. oh yeah and ecu and harness as well

I wouldn't waste the money with this swap. If I were you're friend, I would rebuild the motor you've got. Something about salvage yard engines bothers me. If you do go with the 95 F22B1, make sure everything is in tip top shape before you buy it. You don't want to install that motor, only to find out that it's a dud.
My suggestion, if you really and truely want more power, would be to get an H22.
