350 TBI Swap questions
So I have a 91 Firebird with a 305 TBI in it, Im going to be trading my 305 and a donor car for a buddies 350 TBI out of a 80's(not 100% sure yet what year) 2500 truck. What Im curious is to what issues I may run into. Im hoping that the wiring harnesses are the same. I know I will need to grab the ECM from the truck but what else do I need to grab? will they even swap directly? Also what if anything will I need to alter to get it to drop right in? Im probably going to be cleaning/modding the engine up before I swap it so im assuming I will need to tune it as well. But right now Im just concerned with if there are any little surprises that are going to jump up and bite me in the a$$.
Any thoughts are very appreciated
