I think It will make a nice unique driver. To make it run good, you need an early 6.5 pump, as they are still mechanical. A set of diesel headers, and unrestrictive exaust will help, too.
Depending on tire size, I'd shoot for a 3.42 or 3.73 rear gear.
Forget about a turbo. The pump & headers will gain you more. Besides, the 6.2 was not designed for forced induction.

A diesel classic truck would be a nice feature truck for this site. Haven't seen one at all in this magazine.
