Valvetrain components between the 3500 and 3400 can be shared except you can't use the older 8mm rockers from the 3400 IIRC.

Oh that's to bad that forged pistons are hard to find because with a stock forged crank and forged rods and pistons the 3500 could have some real potential. But how much boost can it handle stock I think the Max on the 3400 is like 10-15 psi.
