95 350 into a 91 camaro

my stepdad is giving me a 95 350 that came out of a chevrolet van it has a TBI on it. i was wondering what it would take to make it work in my 91 z28 convertible which has the 305 TPI. i want to beef up the horse power and keep the TPI. so will it pop straight in and can i just use my 91 intake. and what other problems will i run into thanks for all the help

It will "pop" right in and the TPI will fit on it.

How much power it will have is questionable. The heads and cam are made for a truck, not a performance automobile. Replace those, or even use the 305 parts (assuming the truck engine had a roller lifter cam in it), and it will be a definate improvement.
