6.0 mating with a NV4500???

Guys,, I have a chance to buy a 06 3/4 ton van (minor wreck in drivers front corner,, except for expired tags it's road 'capable' but don't know how road 'worthy' yet) Anyways the price is reasonable at $2000 but it's a high mileage delivery vehicle.

It has a 6.0 and a 4L80E trans.

What I'm wondering is if anyone has tried,, or if there is a flywheel / clutch / bellhousing adapter to bolt the 6.0 up to a 90's era 1/2 ton 4WD chassis and manual trans. I ordered the ol 94 4X4 new with a 350 and NV4500 trans / NP transfer case.

After I retired it from the work fleet I freshened the trans (lost the output splines) and built a hydraulic roller 383 with RHS Vortec heads and retained the TBI. It pulls 'OK' but the TBI and OBDI just has never been right (on 4th chip now and tired of fighting with it)

I'm thinking of putting this 6.0 in the truck,, but not sure of the headaches I'm in for. Anyone put a 6.0 in front of a NV4500 (adapters available) ad more so,, put 6.0 in a 90-98 4x4 chassis???

I just did my taxes and reviewed my SS statement. Thanks to the current administration it looks like I will only have to work till noon on the day of my funeral.
