Engine swap 305 to 350
Hey guys new to the forum and somewhat to trucks.
So I recently purchased a 1988 Chevrolet c1500 v8 5.0L (305)TBI truck and I want to swap this engine out to a (350)TBI which I read is a pretty common swap. Now I'm no gear head but I'm pretty knowledgable and need some guidance through this whole process. So I found an engine that appealed to me on a website.

I'm trying to figure out what I need to do to make this swap happen step by step as this is my first engine swap.
Can I use my existing transmission it's a 4 speed I believe and would my existing components such as injectors work?
