this truck doesnt have a title. owner left it at my place of work 5 years ago and never came back for it and we went through the trouble of making sure it was ok to sell but just didnt mess with gettin the title exchanged and ive really been looking for something to go under the hood of my old chevy to make it run good with 42" tall tires figured the diesel would do better

The 24 valve is pretty easy to make run stand alone. Some quality time with a schematic and you will have it whipped. The early Chevy's have a passenger side transfer case output. Dodge switched to the driver side output in 94. There are plenty of options for using the Dodge NV4500 with a Pass. side drop transfer case. It really depends on what you are willing to spend, and what you are going to use the truck for. You can use the Dodge CAC in your truck, but there is a considerable amount of radiator support modifications to make it fit. As far as mounting the engine, I build Conversion motor mounts/cross-member for your swap. Let me know if you have any questions.
