A cummins swap would be easiest engine to swap in. Tons of threads on the build. Even diesel power had a conversion going for awhile.
A 12V 5.9L cummins and a NV4500 would be a hot ticket. If you want an auto try to find a RH47. The electronic stuff works well but there are a few more things to tweak.
A duramax swap would be pricey swap, its easier to just buy a new truck
