Diesel?

Anybody ever done a diesel engine swap on one of these trucks. Would be awesome. And even though diesel is a little more expensive, you'd make it up in MPG/HP/TQ. Just a thought.

Re: Diesel?

Yeah, something like that. But, with a smaller budget. LOL

Re: Diesel?

I saw a couple at the Roadster show last year. One guy installed a 6.5L with the turbo option and the other had an Olds diesel.
