You might check out the advertisers in HOT ROD. There are many such swaps that have pre-made "kits" available.
It would be pretty simple to pop a pushrod 5.0 Ford into a Ranger, for example...
Many times it's as simple as modifying a frame a bit, assuming the donor vehicle has a straight frame...just shorten or lengthen to match the '56 wheelbase...
