not much considering the shortblock is still a 4.6

obviously the heads, intake, all the stuff that comes with it. I'm not sure if you need any kinda adapter plate with the 3v heads.

Someone on here transformed there's into a 3v already

the 05+ bottom ends don't just bolt up. They have different motor mount arrangements. You can put the heads and intake on it though... 3V2000gt did it.
