www.cummins-conversion.com, non commercial site. It can be done, but the driveline is the weak link there. It is more work to put one in an older frame like that, but if you want something bad enough, there always is a way, it just depends how much time and money you are willing to spend.

I would wonder on the capacity of the front suspension with the heavy motor if it would handle it or a massive upgrade.
