There are kits to mount the driver in a different location where it will run cooler.
As to the Cummins in the Chevy truck? Yeah, there are bolt-in adapters that were made by Cummins for repower jobs - but they're not cheap. Cummins made them for GM transmission bolt patterns and Ford. They were mostly used to repower bread-vans with the four-cylinder Cummins 4BT, but also work with the 6 banger. You're talking about a lot of work and money. It would be cheaper to just improve the 6.5, or buy a Dodge with a Cummins already in it, etc. Just a good Cummins 5.9 by itself often sells $1500-$3000, and same for the four-cylinder 3.9 liter turbo. I'd like to get a 3.9 turbo,but never found one yet that was cheap enough. The Cummins 3.9 turbo makes the same power and torque as a non-turbo 6.5, but gets quite a bit better fuel mileage. When put into a 1/2 ton pickup, and geared right, it can get around 25-26 MPG which is pretty amazing.
