BA, it might end up being easier to import said version of truck than it would be to just get the engine as I'd a quick peruse of the EPA info and while Form 3520-1 Code W suggest it's possible, the other parts say no it must be like for like or better with EPA cert.

And that's pretty much the problem.  It won't matter what you're trying to bring over - unless it is the exact same model sold here in the US (save for being a right-side-driver version) with the exact same emissions system, they won't approve it.  And if you try and finagle it through customs, the EPA will seize the vehicle and destroy it.
