Default 2000 4.3w into 2003 4.3x

I have a 2003 4.3x with a bad engine, what would I need to do to swap it with a 2000 4.3w

Swap intake and exhaust manifolds and figure out a way to mount the different knock sensor. Other than that, it will work.

Use all original PCM and wiring from the 2003. If ANYTHING is different then switch over and use parts from the 2003.
