3.0L and 3.2L mix and match?

I’m in the position right now where I have a 3.2L in rebuild mode, and a 3.0L longblock that I am planning on selling. Considering the fact that I am committed to rebuilding the 3.2L case, is there any reason I would want to use the 3.0L crank or any other 3.0L pieces in the rebuild of the 3.2? I don't think there are, but I wanted to double check with the brain trust here at pelican before I did anything stupid.

Thanks a lot,
Rich

Assuming you don't have any broken pieces you want to swap you should keep them separate. If you scavenge parts of the 3.0 you'll diminish the value for you to sell it. The pistons, rods and crank are all different. The oil pump has a different pick up. The heads are different as well.
