89 and newer seem to work best together, 88 and older were carbed and had different engine mounts.

I would stick with 89-91. Any other years and you'll run into wiring harness in-compatability issues. Also, if you switch from a 3cyl to a 4cyl engine, you'll have to swap out the gauge cluster and fuel pump too.
