I was just wondering if there is a huge change in three years that they won't work with my car. Stuff like bolt holes for engine mounts and the A/C and alt. bracket.
For a top swap, you'd be keeping the current accessories that are on your engine. AC, power steering, alternator don't change at all.
The one thing that is different with the H-body engines is that they use a different style ICM bracket (which also holds the s/c tensioner) than the W-bodies use. The only real issue is that the H-bodies only use 1 upper motor mount. Some W-body guys actually switch to the H-body bracket since it gives better belt wrap, but I'm not familiar with what they do about the missing motor mount (or if it's even an issue).

Also does anybody know if I can take and get my PCM reflashed to handle the SC or do I need a whole new (different) PCM?
The tune on your current PCM can be modified for the supercharged setup, or you can mail order a PCM from one of the vendors (in which case they'd send you a new PCM and you'd mail them back your old one as a core).
