my transmission on a Chevy suburban engine

Hello new member here I have a 1983 305 z28 manual Trans 5.0 carb. I'm going to buy a 1999 350 Chevy suburban engine 5.7 for it*
I'm just worry that it won't fit with my transmission. Does anybody knows if that engine is compatible with my transmission????
Please help thank you.

Yea, but it won't last. T5's are only rated for 300ft-lbs

Don't pull any clutch dumps and don't run slicks and it should be fine for a bit. When ready you can move up to a T56 out of an LT1 or something.
