Default Ls swap a/c questions

I know this is prolly not the first time someone has asked this
Truck 57 chevy with no limit engineering front and rear airride suspension
Engine 2002 chevy 5.3L with Nelson performance stand alone wire harness with an original PCM not aftermarket

I am in te process of perfecting all the details to my frame to perfect all the details on the frame and want to make sure before i have to do any modifications to the frame that the original compressor & brackets will work and function correctly i also want to run the whole ac unit as an assembly from the 2002 p/u

Questions

Is this possible ?
Has it been done ?
What special things would i need ?
Is this the best thing to do ?
What would be the most cost effective ?
What problems should i look out for ?

Not sure if he did it on this truck but he has on some of his other truck builds. He put the guts of the new truck evap a/c in the housing of the older truck so yes it has and can be done.
