Well...

Changing the case is impossible,because the SL's shells are smaller,and the TL's insides are humongous. I posted this a long timeago, but learned this. Also, the drawer of the TL(the CPU that gets pulled out )will never fit there.
As for the CD-ROM Drive, I have no ideaif

Perhaps buying a slot load may not be a bad option

For the money and time you'd invest in moving a tray loading iMac into a slot loading chassis, it would probably make more sense to invest in a slot loading iMac. iMac DV 400s have really come down in price thanks to the mac mini. I was picking up grape dv iMacs for around $50 for a little bit there. Granted, they had bad hard drives and pram batteries, but they worked out in the end.
