It should all drop in fine. That stuff was all optionable when the truck was new. If you're keeping the stock Rochester Monojet 1-Bbl, there should be no air cleaner issue. If you get fancy with a Holley 2-Bbl or any 4-Bbl on a Clifford or Offy intake, then you may need to get creative with aftermarket air cleaners.
I don't have power brakes on my '68 C/10 w/292, but I have a 12" diameter Moroso round air cleaner with a 3" tall K&N filter element. Carb is an Edelbrock 1404, 500 CFM 4-Bbl on an Offenhauser intake with Clifford headers. Transmission is SM465, straight one- piece propshaft and 3.73 Corp 12-bolt rear end with Eaton Posi.
well we went and started the pickup and it ran fine. but MY 67 gmc has the 292 with the SM420 and NO power brakes. the 72 gmc has the 350 WITH power brakes and what ever the transmission was. i hope that clears up the confusion.
