I know that the military engine can have the fuel pump and carb swapped for civvy ones no problem, so if you do indeed have a civilian engine block, getting military peripherals on there shouldn't be a problem.

The other thing to look at is the distributor. If it is just a standard, round civvy distributor, to go back to military you will have to replace (if I recall correctly) either the oil pump or a gear in the oil pump with the one used on the Mil T245 engines so the military distributor shaft will fit correctly. For images of this, the organization maintenance manuals have lots of good pictures of the engine bay.

If you don't have one already, order a CD of manuals from Military Media Military Base Newspaper Advertising. It's only $20 and has ALL of the manuals for the M37. Then you'll be set for life.

Nice truck--have fun with it.
