Has anybody completed this swap? I'm wondering if I'm going to have to modify the frame rails around the exhaust and a/c compressor. Also, anybody know who makes long tube headers to fit 87 4x4?

Many have done it.
Buy the engine mount plates, use different style accessories, build your own headers or buy ones that are available for purchased.
Just go through the threads. Everyone on here is full of information.
to use AC you have to sit the engine forward a ways as well as notch the frame for the AC lines. I made my own mounts for the 83K20 I did. I also scored a pair of CTS-V manifolds and Cats that fit like a glove!
im also doin this same swap but in a 85 4x4 the only thing im having trouble figureing out is the fuel system an i heard that you have to modify the front cross member to clear the oil pan
