why waste your time putting a 40+ year old chassis under a newer cab? If you are building a tow rig, do it with some style. I would use your cab and frame rails, update the rearend and steer axle with some Eaton stuff. Then you set a 350 big cam cummins or a DT466 IH diesel with a 18 speed in it. Then you have the best of both worlds.big power, reliablity, reasonable milage and style. just my opinion.
