Paul IMHO, an engine from a '06-'08 model year would be a better bet than an engine from a '03 model year, the reason being that the newer engine will have the larger (no-serviceable) IMS bearing, as these have a lower failure rates than the '00-'04 engines
again, this is just my personal opinion but others may differ..
