Putting a diesel in my 69 GMC? What engine to use?

I have a '69 GMC with no engine. So I thought id try my hand at a diesel with some stacks to make it a puller. Now the problem for me is is this. One thing. Money. Im a highschool student working on a farm but havnt gotten the chance too since school. So heres my plan, getting a diesel in her and getting a tranny behind it. Ive never worked on a diesel engines before. What kind of mounts do I need? whats the most inexpensive engine that I can get and keep suspension mods and a zero or at a minimum. I want to put a 5 speed behind it and make it roll some coal. So what can I use for a 5 switch? So the main question is this. Im lookin for a I6 or even a 4 banger, just want some torque and a five speed. Im in Nebraska as far as prices go. Thanks Guys!!!! Thanks again and cant wait to start the BUILD!!!!
