George,
Hello. You certainly may keep your existing chassis
and update your drivetrain. The 350 combo is a
popular modification (IFS is also a popular
modification -- although this is usually performed on
1/2 tons).
Here is an example from Brother's web site (note that
the link might "word wrap" to a second line):

If you cannot access the link, go to
http://www.brotherstrucks.com and do a search for
motor mounts. Also, browse the links at
www.oldtruck.net to get an idea of other options.
Make sure to sign up for the Oletrucks list (many of
the folks there can help you with the logistics):
