Just grab a manual trans from a 65 or earlier (IIRC) Mercedes diesel so that way you only have to fab a crossmember for the trans and then use an adapter/lengthen or shorten the driveaxle. The motor mounts are in the same rough locations IIRC so that shouldn't been too bad. That said, like Ryland mentioned, it'd probably be easier to grab a diesel out of a 85 or earlier S10. Given GMs track record it'd almost certainly be bolt and go.
