Almost nothing is the same. The entire accessory drive is essentially reversed. The only two accessories in roughly the same location are the water pump and power steering pump. The 98 does not have the threaded holes for the coil rail. The water pump and shape of the hole in the block for it are completely different. It is doable, not a lot of fun though.
