no, thats not possible, they all share the M5OD-R1 manual transmission. the bolt pattern is the same on all of them.
wrong the 2.3 has a different pattern than the 2.9/4.0 and that is different than the 3.0. this has been covered a million times over in the last 6 years i know of. the 2.9/4.0 are cologne engines and the 3.0 is a vulcan.
