Ideas and thoughts on engine swap

Ok I have a 89 ext. cab 4wd truck with the 3.0. and it needs rebuilt. Was wondering if it would be better to rebuild the 3.0 or to swap it out for a 4.8 chevy motor that i have. I have the entire motor wiring harness and computer. motor is complete. thanks for the input

sell the 4.8, buy a Toyota 3.4L (5vz-fe) and swap that in. Its bolt in with minor modifications.
