The ECM and sensors that came with the Seville had some reliability
issues, but they can indeed all be overcome by later sensors and controllers.
In your case, you'd likely only be interested in the intake, fuel rails and
mechanical bits from the Seville.  The rest of the sensors, wiring and ECM
can be sourced from any number of newer vehicles.  Here's a page put
together by a long time GMECM member that you might be interested in:
