Mount it in the bed, facing backwards. Use a STOUT gearbox to transfer power to the t-case. Buy stock in the company that makes any parts after the engine.........

Yeah.... that would be fun.

I don't think you would even have to INSTALL it to give our trannys a heart attack...... as soon as you opened the shipping crate, the trans would just fall out of the truck, waving a white flag.
