differences between 96-98\99 and 99-2002 3.8's

sorry i may have messed up the years. i know that the throttle body and exhaust manifolds changed in 2000. but are there any other differences in the motor, block, heads, pistons, etc. and what about the transmissions i know they are the same models, but are there differences? or are they completely interchangeable?

No - the TB / UIM changed in 1999.
