Trans cross member mounting will be different too... After that, it is pretty much the same, depending on the distance from the output shaft to the rear diff... They might need different drive shaft modifications or fabrications... I haven't gotten that far yet...

Computer programming will be the same process, just using different data...

I should compile a couple spreadsheets with the relative data for each version...

Hope this helped answer your question...

Cheers!!
The mechanical stuff doesn't bother me, itve turned a wrench for years. It's the coding/electronics that always mess me up. If the programming goes well and it's a turn-key scenario with no warning lights on permanently then I'm sold on the swap, even if it ends up being a measly 4.4.
