Id say I'm 90% confident that it would.
As far as stock goes, the only person who can answer that is Mike. shoot him an email. He should be able to tell you. mike(at)rc-monster.com
sometimes he even has an odd part sitting around that isnt showing up on the website.
Sounds like a fun little project. I always thought about doing one of those. Best of luck and be sure to post some pictures when you get it going. :)
EDIT: Starscream beat me to it and sounds like he knows better than me. Getting the staduim diff mount to replace the buggy one sounds like the simple solution to me.

Ya, I've owned both of these vehicles and converted both as well.
I should clarify, The easiest way to use Mikes LS10 Motor Mount on the HB buggy is to use the stock LS10 center diff mount. The reason the diff mounts are different height is that the buggy uses a much smaller spur gear than the truck. You can also uses shims/spacers to raise the height of the buggy stock diff mount to work with the RCM mount but the stock LS10 mounts are cheap, the exact height, and don't require any additional work.
