    I'll start by saying that I'm not considering doing anything to a perfectly running truck, but I came across this on Craigslist and now I'm intrigued.

    http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/ptd/3685035607.html

    Would this be a drop in replacement, or would there be some major modifications that need to be made? It doesn't give a year range, and their website also lists Acura for this engine.

    I smell something foul.....but just for fun, what do y'all think?

    Like I said, no interest in actually doing it. It just seems like there are a number of people out there that would like a diesel.

    97 HP?:confused:...that's ludicrous!
