Yep, I'd reccomend bolting the burb's electrical system into your truck. Should be pretty quick and simple to pull off, only needing to remove a few wires for the rear cabin lights, rear heater, tailgate window etc. I imagine they would all have connectors you can just un-plug, so you probally won't have to cut any wires.

If you arn't planning on using the burb's transmission, you will need to change your current transmission to an electric speed sensor. If your truck has a 700r4 as well, it will be very easy to just switch them out, just gotta press the toner ring on, and swap tailhousings.

Fuel shouldn't be half bad either, I'd personally reccomend you find an 87 to grab the EFI saddle tank off of, and it's fuel lines. You can bolt a Blazer tank in, but the burb tank will probally be too big.
