70 SWB with Trailblazer SS frame??? NEED HELP???

Ok, this is my very first post so I apologize if I'm doing some things wrong here.
I have always loved this era of trucks. I had a 69' short box in High School and sold it to go to college. As soon as I got out of College, I found another one and flew to California from Wyoming and drove her all the way home!!!

Now I just finished building my shop and time to dig in head first!! I have a 04' Silverado SS and love how it handles and drives and would like to incorporate modern engineering, supspension, and power into the old classic!!

I was thinking about or seeing if it is even possible of buying a salvaged trailblazer SS and using the the running gear and supsenion for my 1970 C10 or doing a complete underbody swap. I believe my frame dimensions are 113" and the SS is 115". I personally think an AWD short box with about 600+ horse would be a bad mamma jamma!!!!!

Has anyone attempted something like this or can any of you point me in the right direction?

Oh yea 1970 C10 Short Box:
Factory AC/ Factory PS/ Factory PB/ Wood Bed/ 350 SB with 700R4 tranny
