diesel engine sawp

ive got a gm crate 350 with edelbrock eps manifold and 650 edel performer carb in my truck right now. i was wondering how much of a hassel it would be to swap that out for a diesel engine? anyone know where i can get some info on this? if i decide to go ahead with this project ill have the 350 to sell but i dont know yet it has i think 11-12k on it. but id like to try a high performance diesel application for the coolnes factor. i mean how many of our trucks are slammed or customized very much with a diesel in em?

Look for complete running diesel truck you can use for a donor. Otherwise wou'll get 'nickel & dimed' to death by all the little things you have to get later.
