I recall this as being the year they changed the lubrication of the B1. If your 91' upper has the oil passage, it will fit. If not, it won't,

If you have an old style upper with no oil passage you can put a newer lower with the oil hole on. The newer lower has to have the oil passage closed off so no water gets into it. Tap it and screw plug in or 4200 or silicone, anything to seal water out.
