1st project 83 camaro 4cyl to v8 help

I just picked up an 83 camaro it was my wife's late uncles car .I've never done engine swaps and was wanting to know what all I would have to change to accompany a 350/383. It is a fuel injected car which I have no problem putting a carb. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Maybe it should be renamed, but 4-cylinder third-gens are rare.
