I would prefer to do it a well as possible so that when I sell it, someone isn't talking about me rigging it.

For those of you with converted trucks, what did you do to get around this?

try one of those shiny flex hose kits, they have multiple adapters to fit all sorts of weird combos......here's one w/ both 1.25, 1.5 and 1.75 reducers for about 40 bucks................ Summit Racing SUM-390024
