I converted mine from a 3.0v6 to a diesel, save yourself the hastle its not worth the work.
The amount of gear and wiring you have to change yould be better off buying a diesel one outright.

I only did it as im a stubborn arse mechanic and still think it was a pain, although im loving the diesel power 8)

No bellhousing wont fit, wiring loom needs changing, tanks and lines, radiator ect ect, not just an engine your changing its the whole truck basicly
