The engine will go into the Century without a lot of problems, maybe motor mount changes, the real problem is the electronics. in 1990 the electronic interface was different than the 2003. If you used the 1990 ECM it would not talk to the 2003 BCM, If you have an advanced electrical engineering degree, it might be a snap.
