6bt cummins into a 1971 k10

Im picking up a 97 cummins engine along with a nv4500. Ive had the truck for 3 years and couldnt decide what i want to do with it. Well the plans to box the frame, dana 60 front- 80 rear,suspension etc... anybody done this swap or similiar before? Its pretty cut and dry but wanted to see if i could look over somebody elses for ideas. Im open to all suggestions.

A local body shop owner near here built an extended cab longbed GMC. He used the complete Dodge 2500 4x4 chassis with the Cummins still in place. Not really same as you're wanting to do but it definately was a cool truck. I think he sold it so can't get any pics now.
