yes you can, find a pump off a industrial equipment 5.9 and it will bolt right up.......you may have to make custom lines though, but that shouldnt be over 150-200 bucks at the most........

I know the Back hoe we have an work has an air compressor on it. However its a 4bt with a VE pump. Might be worth looking into for some 1st gen guys. Its a 70 something Case.
