Rich,

Go for it. Your car, your money, your time, your busted knuckles, and your ideas. I run a 52 Ford F-1 pick up with a 327 Chevy, mounted on a Chevy S-10 frame. I decided to go with what pleased me. Think Burger King...Have it your way.
In answer to your question, look on the web for some Chevy advertisers for engine parts. You'll find Chevy engine mounts for almost any car or truck. You might want to keep the Ford rear though, Ford does make a hefty rear.
If it's an older Chevy engine, switch to an HEI vacuum advanced distributor. It's got no points, the coil in the cap, and only one wire to hook up. Don't get talked into a one wire altenator. That second sensor wire to your fuse box will keep your battery up, lights bright, and full voltage to your distributor.
