305tpi to truck 350 with tpi

im swapping out my current '92 305tpi to a 350 i got for free. The 350 is out of a 91 truck and i will be putting my tpi onto it. I know these heads are pretty restrictive and im not sure what type of cam the trucks had, but what power differences will i see.

i will be getting injectors and a prom from a 350. will i be needing anything else for this swap. i think they might have a different knock sensor?


i know the truck motor sucks but the $$$ is not there for anything better. I think it will still give me decent power over the 305.
i need some opinions.
thanks

You are probably gonna lose power. The 350 TBI trucks only made around 200hp. I would save the motor and build it up and prepare your car for the swap in the meantime.
