I used a donor 1990 G-van a while back for the powertrain as well. Vans are great sources of parts. Link below.

The 6 cylinder engine mount towers in your ’70 C10 will not work. If you plan on using the G-van or any of the newer style exhaust manifolds you will need either 67-72 big block towers or use 73-87 2wd towers like I did on my ’72.
