I actually got the truck running this weekend, but the carburetor is pouring fuel. Every gasket in it is toast. I'm gonna chunk another carb on it and go cruisin. lol

you are in luck here, the project and builds section has some cummins swaps you can look over. the cummins is a very long engine and will come through the firewall to at least the dash, also very challenging to get enough cooling in the stock rad location, but it has been done!
