89 K1500 5.7L to 97 K1500 5.7L Vortec Motor swap

As the title states, I have an 89 K1500 with the 5.7L auto trans and I want to put it in my 97 K1500 auto trans. Is this possible? Will I have to swap the transmissions as well? Wiring harnesses match up? Also can I put the Vortec heads and/or intake manifold on the older 350?
