Red face 99 305 vortec into 85 c10

I know I've said I wanna keep the original 305 but I ran into a guy trying to sell me a 99 305 vortec with 126k miles he was asking 500 bucks at the time. He then wanted to trade me for my 305 and 300 bucks. I thought was low ball bc my engine only has 50k miles. Plus I know I'd need a list of parts to make it work. He then offered he would throw in The tank sending unit and stuff from his truck for another 100 bucks.

Needless to say I found his ad again and he is now asking $350
What would I gain beside fuel injection?
What other parts do I need to make sure I get?
What kind if deal should I offer the guy?
I have never in my life dreamed or know the first step in removing and engine lil lone doing a swap like this so I'd have to find someone that would do the work and let me be an apprentice to see how everything works.
Will it be worth it in the end

P.s. he still has it in the vehicle so I can hear it
