If you can find a whole dodge truck with the diesel engine, you can rob the trans and tcase, engine adapter and accessories. You can sell the 6bt engine to recoop some of the cost. If you want an auto and you are OK with a 3spd without overdrive, you can find a 4bt already set up for a TH400. That kind of thing.

Once you have a plan laid out, its a lot easier to estimate cost. This is why some people spend years collecting parts to make the swap happen. It takes longer but can be cheaper.
