putting in the 350 is gonna cost alot and will entail lots of work. It will need a conversion motor mount kit (available through summit racing) and probably a different transmission (depending on your gearing) also if your truck sits too low with the 2.2 then it may sit much too low with the 5.7 (350) you might look into a stronger more stiff shock in the front end. Otherwise the motor will add power to compliment the looks so by all means carry on with the install.
