Your mistake was a blessing. You bought yourself a '6 bolt'.

Yes they fit, but you need a couple parts.

Google search 6 bolt swap and you should find everyting you need.

Its all good. You did yourself a favor, believe me. They are much more reliable engines.

Long block just means it has the head with it. Short block just means the bottom end, without the head.

Just remove the space between dsm and tuners, and you are good to go.
