Default are C5Z and C6Z engine cradles interchangeable?

I was wondering if anyone has tried to put a C6Z cradle in a C5Z. supposedly they are lighter, and stronger. I'm guessing that the C5Z lower a-arms will have to be used if they are interchangeable??

thanks

I have looked over the two parts side by side before.

It looks like the cradle will bolts up, however the c6's use a different motor mount. You may have to buy those for it to work. Everything else looked the same. Not sure if the C5 arms would bolt up to it though.
