Id reckon their'd be plenty of room for one in there. Would have to fab up some new motor mounts.

If you search the forum for your truck I'm sure you will get allot of results...

my guess is that if you have the fabricating skillz and a well equipped shop it wouldn't be hard... just a bit time consuming

Searching old threads will have your answers.

I do know this has been discussed several times and there are members here with IDI motors in 70's model trucks.
