They are very similar. The C10's have a couple of bolt holes on the vertical surface of the frame that requiring 'ovaling' the holes for the hardware. The 73-87 C10 frame is also a little taller where the x-member is located which can impact which motor mount towers/stanchions are needed. It's possible these differences will also be the same for C20's
The main differences are usually the upper a-arm shaft mounting hardware & lower a-arm u-bolts being different sizes. The hardware sizes increased when the disc brakes were introduced on the later model trucks. The upper a-arm shaft mounting studs are also larger for C20's vs C10's.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
