I did a 97 5.9 with the RE46 into a 39 Dodge pickup. I bought a Hot Wire harness ( www.hotwireauto.com) not cheap, but is a plug and play with 4 wires to hook up to make the Mopar EFI run. Now, if my luck with the trans would have been as good as the efi was, I'd be driving it now. Note to sef, always install a rebuilt/re-manufactured auto trans.... Gene

I am doing something similar, see my sig line. I am taking everything from the donor Ram Charger though including the dash, HVAC, steering column, wiring harnesses, fuel tank and lines. I'm also using a NV4500 from a 97 2WD 2500. I am nowhere near done though. At this point I just have the donor truck stripped and the 93 OBD1 converted to an 01 OBD2 controller.

A buddy of mine has the perfect solution for you. A 93 D150 chassis with a 5.2 and auto complete rolling.
Put the Sweptline cab etc on the 93 chassis and get EFI, OD and power steering, brakes, handling plus a ride that won't break your back.
He bought the truck in Florida for a cab and sheet metal donor for his W350 Diesel Dodge. Drove it to Canada.
Kevin That would be great for my next project, but your some distance from me. By the time I got it here, it likely wouldn't be very cost effective for me. Gene
