You'd need new motor mounts, but it's likely the transmission mount and driveshaft could be reused depending on what transmission is in there already.

The better question is what are your goals for the truck? Power, MPG, cruiseability, weekend warrior, etc? What do you want to do with it. That should drive what motor/trans combo you pick.
