I have yet to swap an engine where the computer in it works like that. But I personally am not sure.

Wiring diagrams are the same for both engines, but that doesn't mean the harness is exactly the same. Some stuff might have a different connector, although I doubt it. More likely would be a sensor wire wouldn't reach where it goes. Definitely would want the computer.
