LS swap with all I have sitting around

I have a '72 2WD SWB chassis, a 5.3 (70,000 miles/local furniture delivery van), a '53 3100 and a 2003 Tahoe (another 5.3/4L60).

First debate, build everything on the 72 chassis/platform and then cut it for the 53 SWB truck. Second option is to put the '53 on the Tahoe chassis and go that route.

If took apart all the A/C components from the Tahoe how hard will it be to transfer all that to the '53? under the dash and all?

There should be a ton of room for the A/C condenser but I would like to get everything under the dash.

or...(never used any vintage air stuff) do I just use the compressor on the 5.3 and pipe inside the can for and vintage air unit?

Thoughts of the professional 'swappers'.
