but if you want a diesel, save yourself alot of headaches and just buy a early to mid 90s 2500/3500 truck, i agree the detroit is a better motor then the izuzu but its like a LSX swap in a 4th gen LT1 car, yea you can do it to be different but its cheaper and easier to by a LS1 car

Except I dont want a fullsize truck. Plus the 6.2 is a cheap swap. Theres nothing expensive about it. No harness, no ECU, no huge drivetrain changes (not that I wasnt doing that anyway). 
 
Fuel mileage is no joke either. With a J code manifold with EGR delete and a timing chain thats not loose 6.2s can pull 20-30 mpg depending on driving condition.
