Hi,
Anything is possible, but to do this, you will need to replace everything. For example, mounts, wiring harnesses, and modules from the 04. Vacuum harnesses, exhaust, and the list goes on. If this has an automatic transmission, then you will need to consider if your present transmission will operate with the new powertrain control module.
This is a big change and will require time and a lot of effort. Also, from experience, I have seen so many times people make changes like this, and no matter what we do, the CEL comes on and it fails state emissions inspections.
I wish I sounded more positive, but I don't want to mislead you. If you want to give it a try, I will be happy to help as much as possible, so let me know.
Take care,
Joe
