You can dream but diesels are in vogue... so they usually cost way more than they are worth.
I have a GM 6.5L TurboDiesel in my 2000 GMC but I wouldn't go looking for one. So far I've avoided the main web cracks and splits between the valves but I don't want to say it out loud next to the truck.
How have you done on nozzles for the injectors?
The last I read parts made in countries other than India and China that are made out of metal that won't erode in 15,000 miles are difficult to source.
I found a set of Bosch nozzles made in Estonia or Poland last time and they are getting toward 85,000 miles now.
I may use a set of Monark nozzles from the Benz guys next time I build a set.
