Welcome to DF.
Unfortunately, if you have the automatic tranny, anything larger you put into your truck is going to require a better transmission as well. If its a manual tranny, then you could put in the 5.2L V8 without any transmission issues.
It'll require, either way, basically a complete donor truck. You'll need sensors, a different PCM, etc.
