99 engine swap

I have a 1999 solara SE 3.0L 1MZFE motor that smokes bad no noise good oil pressure just smokes bad. Just bought a 1998 3.0L 1MZFE motor out of a 1998 camry that has low miles and runs great. Are there any electronic issues I need to change from one motor to the other. The Camry motor came with all wiring still attached. Is this a plug and play or do I need to put all electrical system from the Solara motor on the Camry motor. ANY info would be a help. It has been 30yrs since I have swapped an engine. About time I got back into it, and start playing again.
Thank you for your help.
