Default SV1000 K6 subframe swap?

Just curious of what I'd need to raise the back end and seat height of my SV1000sz. I'm contemplating getting a K3 subframe and swapping it over. I presume I'd need a K3 seat? Anything else that I'd need?
Maybe a bit of a PITA for 10mm seat height increase

silly question but why do you want the seat height higher
but anyway your options are
shorter dogbones to raise backend
if its just seat height tony archer custom seats is the way forward
