Are there internal differences between the GEMS and Bosch 4.6 short block? Are internal parts such as the crankshaft, pistons, and rods interchangeable?

It's obviously doable, but how much work is it to install a GEMS 4.6 in my 4.0 Disco 2? (I think I have a good one to use). Can I install the CPS bracket from the Bosch? Then just the intake manifold? Also, what about ECU settings?
