an ebay CAI is better then any stock airbox....for flow

the exhaust manifolds...they would be interchangeable...but not worth it...you might as well as install headers for sound and a little bit more power gain

heads would work...but its alot of work JUST to get to the originals and then your dealing with new heads on a stock bottom end and block

the only thing to me that would be the best bang for the buck...would to get a COMPLETE motor(everything from oil pan to the TB...and the accesories) from and 09 swap out the tone ring in the bottom end and then youll have an 09 engine in you 2000

Yeah louds right, and the heads are different and I'm almost certain they wouldn't work on our 4.7's. They obviously changed alot to bump power from 235 to 310...

You're better off s/c'ing your 4.7.
