First gen body on 2nd or 3rd frame ?

My son is wanting to build a 1000 HP first gen.

Just brain storming on how to go about it.

Therefore the question is "Will a 1st gen body adapt to a second or third gen frame and not look hideous ?

or

Would the P-pumped or common rail motor be better adapted just using the first gen. frame ?

I want to use an Automatic trans. and the truck to be a 4x4.Just looking for that first gen. appearance.
 
Depends on the use of the truck.

If a pavement princess, just use the 1st gen frame. If to be a serious puller or race truck, the 1st gen frame has been known to twist up
 
Or is it possible to reinforce a first gen frame to be stronger than a wet noodle?

It's unnerving how much my truck flexed just driving down the road.

So has someone mounted a 1st gen body to a second or third Gen frame ?

I think I am inclined to go second gen. frame .
