A power steering bracket will be needed if you don't feel like adding another idler pulley...

keep your throttle body, although an upgrade (62 or 63mm) would be good!
 
Im sorry yes Power steering pump bracket, i need the newer one right, also what do you recommend for throttle bodies is the 99 and newer better with the vacum port on it?
 
Here are the prices for bored throttle bodies as well as optimal sizes from Leigh

'87-'90 60mm Throttle body $90.00 $50.00
'91-'95 63mm Throttle body $90.00 $70.00
'96-'04 63mm Throttle body $90.00 $70.00
'05-'06 62.5mm Throttle body $105.00 $80.00

Your '95 needs '95 sensors, which need a '91-95 throttle body to mount up
 
Keep your throttle body, it bolts right up to the 99 manifold. It takes all of about 60 seconds to remove a throttle body, so it's not necessary to bore it out or do whatever to it while you have it off. Alternator bracket is on the other side of the engine and isn't affected at all by upgrading to the newer manifold. As stated already, get the power steering bracket with the new manifold.
