Hi Kevlar1984, welcome to the forum

I better leave this question for Hobbist since he is the expert on cars, I just wanted to say I am happy you joined us.

legally NO. The emissions certification would be seriously compromised. Technically yes, but a lot of work will be involved. A completely new drive train, frame,etc. Much better to start over with an older Surburban to restore.
