Actually I should ask for clarification;  do you mean a Morrowind total
conversion that runs on Morrowind and makes it something else, or
Morrowind re-created in one of the later engines?
I found, but haven't downloaded, one of the latter on the Oblivion
engine, and talk of one on the Skyrim engine that's not available yet.
The oblivion engine one apparently has issues and hasn't had an update
since Nov 2014, so I'm kinda wondering if it's even worth bothering with
it.
