No harder than swapping LS1s. People do it all the time...it's quite common actually...basically the same engines. Just do a search and you should find everything you need.

Most people use them to build up a 408. It wouldn't be worth the trouble to just swap the stock engine in.

Actually the stock engine is plenty powerful and has a very strong torque band. IMO worth all the time to put it in. You could always upgrade the cam, etc later.
