JByrd, You have a front mount system in there now, and you are wanting to install a side mount engine. Most of the truck suppliers like Dennis Carpenter, LMC, Carolina Classics all sell a kit for the conversion.

Get the engine/tranny in, next you will have to get a custom fit drive shaft for the new length. Once you get to the rears, your swap should be complete.
