Small brake booster conversion?

I've seen a few trucks that have the smaller (double diaphram) type booster installed flat against the firewall. I'd really like to get rid of the huge, mis aligned unit they put on these trucks.

Has anyone done this before?

I have one off a 78 Chevy truck that would work but I will have to make a booster to pedal rod. Just wondering if there is a direct swap or easier way?
