Default I scored a free long block, now what?

I have acquired what is basically a 2017 Chevy pickup truck 5.3 long block that has about 60k miles on it. But, that's all I have. I would like to put it in my CJ7 and get rid of the gutless AMC 360 that runs on propane. The engine doesn't have the intake or the injectors. The coils are gone. Basically just a long block. I did some research on the specs on the engine and I feel like I have a pretty good starting point. All aluminum, 355hp. What I see as the issue is the technology behind what makes it run. When I've looked for ways online to make it run, the information I've found is for older years and I'm not sure it is applicable.

I'm starting to wonder if I'm making this to complicated. What are your favorite suppliers of "kits" that I could research to get this engine running?
