Again just my .02. It's your truck so do what you want.
Dodge didn't make or use the 4BT. Freightliner used it for some of their box trucks and they were installed in some box vans for companies like FedEx.

Still, I don't see the value of putting a 4BT in a classic Chevy truck unless you're building a truck for the apocalypse and want an engine that can run on alternative fuels.
