converting 87 2wd to 5VZFE, questions

hi, i have a 87 2wd standard cab short box truck that came with a carbureted 22r, i have since done the 3VZE conversion about 4 years ago, i have 50,000 miles on the conversion and it runs great. however i want more power of course so i just purchased a 5VZFE today with 90k on it and will have a TRD pupercharger installed with it. i was wondering how much more wiring is involved with this swap? i have the complete wiring harnes for the engine including the computer. what else will i need? i heard the starters and fly wheels are different on the 3.4 vs 3.0 is that true? also if anyone has done a conversion like this i would like to hear from you. i would like to have it done by spring, thanks in advance

if you can tackle swapping in a 3VZE into a 22R truck, you're probably won't have any problem with the 3.4.

it'll bolt to the 3VZE motor mounts and transmission, i'm not sure about the flywheel or starter differences.
