Default gems to bosch replacement

Hey guys i know that there was a thread on a swap from a 4.0 gems to a bosch 4.6, i just cant find it right now.
however my dilema is i have an 03 disco 4.6 bosch with hole in the block. i found a 96 4.6 gems and purchased it. i know it will fit but, i am not sure if it needs som type of modification to run the bosch sytem. i only plan on using the block from this 96 engine.
Any help, please.

You can only use the engine block, not the heads, manifolds or sensors. You might want to send me your number so we can talk, cause this may not be worth your doing.

Oh yeah, sweet. I hope to chat with several people in this site. A friend of mine suggested that I peruse these fiction forums to contact interesting people
