Yes. Later (94/95) 3.0L SHO blocks (must be SHO, non-SHO blocks are different) will run cooler when opened up vs. earlier ones. Remember the oil pans & oil pumps are different between the 2 engines.

SuperHO, It's really hard to find 3.2L block in Russia. I found only used 3.0 sho engine and wanna use it to repair my 3.2 engine.
What different between 3.0 and 3.2 oil pumps and oil pans? It looks like equal

The pumps have slightly different shapes to accommodate the differences in the timing belt covers. The 3.2 pump also has a larger volume output. The oil pans have a different shape where they mount to the transmission and not interchangeable. And yes you can bore out the 3.0 to 3.2 and install ALL of the 3.2 parts and it will work.
