there is nothing diffrent from 94-03 other then some internal and computer changes. you will have to swap the wiring harness to get it to run right. but all the mounts and everything is the same. for 500 horse you will need injectors, turbo, headstuds, springs and push rods, clutch or tranny, custom chip, intake, exhaust.

As JoeBob said, the blocks are the same...
You will need to switch to Electric fuel on your truck because the SD motor doesn't have the lobe on the cam... You will also need to add an intercooler if you plan on sticking with the SD Spyder... The wiring harness and computer need to be swapped over.
Check to make sure that block has forged rods or it aint worth all the work.
