    I'm in the same search that you are, for my Trooper.
    I believe the 3.2 is a perfect swap. If I remember correctly, member givegodachance did it and loves it.

    It's very tempting, but only because I can't find a 6VE1 short block either!

    The only difference between the 98+ 3.2 and 3.5 are the pistons and the crank, the blocks are identical. The cams are slightly higher duration too if I remember right, so if you can't find the 3.5 just get a 3.2 and throw your 3.5 cams in there and call it a day. The 3.2 will only be a 5-10hp difference compared to stock so it won't really be noticable.

    Yes everything from the 3.5 will bolt right onto a 3.2 including the heads. The heads are also identical except for the camshafts which will still work on either engine, the 3.5 cams just have slightly higher duration.
