every thing will bolt up to a new and different 350 but i dont know if it will bolt up to a new one with vortec heads i do not think that will work. but you can reuse just about every thing on the old engine things that was on it and some things such as the water pump and oil pan, etc. i am in the begining stages of an engine swap form a 305 to a 350 and i can use a lot of little parts of the 305 for the 350

This thread is the closest I've seen:

rsilver had a few words to say about it...

Edit: You have an '86, so your TPI manifold won't bolt directly to it. Elongate the holes or get an '87-later manifold.
