Default 1995' 5.7 in a 1999 Escalade??

I have a couple questions. I have a 99 Cadilac Escalade that has a 5.7 vortech in it. I also have a spare motor laying around that was pulled from a 95 GMC Yukon. It is not a vortech though. Will I be able to just swap intakes and slap this 95 motor in the 99? I know the accessories will have to be swapped but pretty sure all those will bolt up correct. Just not sure if the motor itself is the same or not. I was thinking I was going to have to wap the heads also but was told there is no reason to do so. The bad thing is I can not use the heads off the 99 motor, they are bad. Car has been sitting a little over 2 years and not in good health at all.

Any and all help is welcome,
Thanks
Mike

why not sell both for what you can get to fund LSX to drop in there?

It's not my truck. It belongs to a friend of mine but I have the motor and would like to get the truck back on the road.
