Converting gas to diesel is not trivial. All you wiring will need to be different, unless you can harvest a terminal block, instrument panel and all wiring from a diesel sedan. At that point you might as well put a 606 in, and if you are doing that, maybe just go one better and drop a salvage om648 with a 722.6 in it for modern power, shifting, overdrive, economy and emissions. Just use the factory ecu and tcu from the donor.
