I'm buyin an 87 350 w/fuel injection and was going to put it in my truck but decided since my truck is so old(73) that it may have a lot of wiring issues and I decided I would let my dad have this engine and put it in his 84 that has a worn out old 305 because he would have less problems with wiring and such than I would. Am I right in thinking this? Would there be any problem w/getting the fuel injection to work in my dads truck or would it be a straight drop in? If we needed to could we take the intake and carb from my dads 305 and put it on the new motor?

Any help or advice would be awesome.
