67-71 as tow vehicles?

I have a 72 2wd 3/4 ton long bed. I also have the following: A camp trailer (small, 19 ft 77 roadrunner), an 85 Jeep-cJ7, and my 72 blazer. Both the jeep and blazer are built to rock crawl and do not do long highway miles well. So my plan is to build my 72 to haul my toys.

My plan is to use the original 350 block and build it, possibly a 383 stroker. But I am curious, what other things should I plan on to make the vehicle a suitable tow rig? Here is the original list on the glove box.



I know I will probable have to upgrade the tranny. Does anyone here have a goose neck set up in one of these trucks?

Thanks a bunch, I just think it would be really cool to haul my 4x4 blazer with my grandpas old hunting, and camping truck. Also the camper I have is his as well. Grandma sold it, and I tracked down the owner and bought it back.
