Default 6.2 c code and j code engine differences

I didn't see this question asked any where else so here it goes.

Is the only difference between the c code and j code 6.2's the intake manifold and the presence of egr on the motor?

They also run different valve sizes in the head, injectors, injection pumps, and injector lines.

So if one wanted to convert their c code motor to a j code it would be a head swap, intake, injectors and nessesary equipment.

The only heads that run a coarse injector are 82 all heads after that are fine thread. You could swap the heads but if you have a complete running 6.2 I wouldn't worry about it for the power gain you would get.

I was more curious than anything. I wasn't sure of the extent of the differences. Thanks all for your replies.
