I think he meant K5.
Now, I hope you are good at measuring and fabricating for body mounts. You will need to setup all new body mounts for the s-series body onto the fullsize frame.
It's been done before with good success. You have to determine if it is worth it or if it makes more sense to do a SFA (solid front axle) swap.
