Leave the ECU alone. Swap the sensors if the plugs are different. Everything else is fine.

Just a bit more specfically ... some early cars have round pin sensors, and the later ones have flat pin sensors. As mentioned above, you might have to flip out some of these sensors - otherwise no problems.
