Post CAT 3208 in a C-30

Okay so I haven't seen or heard of too many people with CAT'S in their Chevys. Might be too tough to pull it off.....so.....we're gonna throw the crew cab dually body on the big truck frame! I've taken all the measurements and it will be a cinch. shorten the frame a little, and fab up some cab, front clip and bed mounts. The 10 speed road ranger trans will come through right where it is supposed to, the front axle width is only 2 inches wider than the C-30 front suspension. The clutch is hydraulic and the air brake master will bolt right up with some mods to the present brake pedal. Look out all those KODIAKs with pickup beds on 'em.

Any thoughts out there?
