Aren't the GTS bodies all the same, regardless of engine size?

Yes, I believe that is the case.

The biggest hurdle will likely be the wiring...

It would be pretty time consuming, and not worth it monetarily unless you could find a salvage donor bike cheap.

In short, it wouldn't be the worst idea to sell what you've got and buy a 300.
