All 3L Duratec blocks share the same crank & rods.
The pistons are interchangeable being of same bore size but differ between several platforms.
The clearances might make swapping say Jag pistons for stock pistons a problem. For instance the Jag cams have less lift because their pistons are domed. That's how tight the clearances are.
I suppose technically the cranks may be balanced slightly different but that's moot for aftermarket parts because rebalancing is needed anyway when changing to them.
