I just looked around at parts and a 97 and 96 vin W head would not fit your 95 vin W. Im guessing a 95 probably has roller rockers since both the 96 and 97 specify not for roller rockers where the 95 doesnt mention it.

any more questions?

If you do use the newer heads you will also need the corresponding intake manifold. Watch for that info as you read through the article.
