If you use the the intake, fuel delivery, electronics, and accessory drive off your '99 the '00 should be able to be used.

The block and heads are good. The intake manifold is different, but keep it; it's better. You will need the new exh. manifolds to use the new int. manifold, and you might need the new y-pipe for the new exhaust manifolds, but get confirmation. I think you'll need to use the motor mounts & brackets off the old engine. The fastest, easiest way to do this, would be to drop the subframe out of both cars, and swap the '00 into your '99. You'd need the '00 PCM, but it should be easy enough to change out. Less headaches this way, assuming you can get the tranny out of where the '00 engine would be coming from as well.
