well if ya do a little looking there is a couple of company's that make kits for this swap. Motor mounts, headers, radiator, oil pan, crossmember drive shaft. those are your main componets.
but of course i would sell the 350 and build a 351 it really doen't cost that much to make a 351w perform with a 350chevy these days infact it would almost me canceled out the money you save on buying the swap kit.

I know this is a bit off, but he brings a good point. If it would fit physically, I would love to put my 1971 Buick 455 C.I.D mill in there.

a 455 is a lot bigger block than a small block 350. a small block buick is nearly the size of a bb chevy. im not saying it wouldn't fit but it would be a pain to work around.

i had a 350 in my 86 stang....67 camaro headers work prefect ont the passenger side but requires cutting of the drivers side...but i had the factory k-member ...but now d-d and qal..etc..make tubular k-member with chevy mouts..there is chevy heAders for a stang on ebay right now, but you have to use a tubular k-member, the headers are 800.00 by the time you paid for all that you could have a 347 motor or a built 351w or even the big daddy the 429-460

Your in the wrong forum man. If you want a 350 so bad, buy a Camaro. And talk about it in the chevy camaro forums.
