the 03 intake manifold is a complete "loop" whereas the 04-up is more of a "horseshoe" shaped one.
there are minor differences between the two motors, and there are some major differences in the electronics/programming between them...
what exactly is the reason you need a new motor ??

It is in the Tech Folder. Sixth item on the second post, to be exact.
