Goodwrench 350 in 68 1/2 ton SWB

The 327 that came w/the truck is done....and not sure if I want to pay someone to rebuild it or if I'd ever trust a rebuilt engine. Also, I know of no reputable engine rebuilder in the southwest OK or north TX area, although if anyone knows a reputable shop..... That said, am strongly considering a Goodwrench 350 as it is something I can do (vice rebuild).

The truck is bone stock w/the following options: PS and A/C.

Is this a "plug and play" operation where I can simply unbolt all the accessories from the 327 and put them on the 350 or am I going to run into problems?

Any other recommendations prior to the swap? Going to add HEI, but other than that, do not intend to make any major engine modifications. Any suggestions regarding intake/carb combinations will be appreciated. I do not intend to race, win burnout contests nor impress my friends w/"go fast" gadgets and goodies. My intent is to just buy the engine (or rebuild to factory specs), swap all the accessories and install the 350. Trying to keep it all relatively simple. thx
