'88 GTA 355 Into My '92 Z28?

Suppose I were to scrap my GTA Plans and just put the motor in my Z28, am I going to run into any problems?

The engine is a 355 TPI, it is cammed but I don't know the specs, the timing is advanced, and the computer needs a tune. It has 24# injectors, etc.

My Z28 is a 305, and from what I have read I don't see me having any problems. Anything I should know?

Just the long block? You'll need to tune the PROM.

Whole set-up? You're going from SD to MAF, so you'd need everything. Plus, going to an older year system technically isn't emissions legal in any of the 50 states.
