Interesting idea but it reads like shoe horning a Corvette C4 power train into a 1972 Vega. You'll turn heads but it will have a bit of a Frankenstein Monster if it comes alive.
You might be better off finding a late model low mileage GM diesel pickup to use as a donor. And you'll need the entire truck to make the conversion. Fuel system, engine/trans electronics, gauges, antitheft and such. An insurance auction truck that was tee boned would be a perfect donor.
