Default calibrate engine type in ecu

HI
i have a cadillac cts 2004
i swapped the engine from
V6 2.6L To v6 3.2L
my question is how can i calibrate the engine type in the ecu and is it doable
first is it a matter of changing the VIN with a
3.2L Vin and how to obtain it and would i have to program other thing like key/radio
or is it a matter of changing the engine type and it will configure everything in VCI calibration

I Have a TECHII and flashing program + subscription

i want to do this to have the correct transmission shifts and fuel efficiency

any other option or alternative solutions am open to thanks for the help
