Im looking into swaping in some sort of diesel into my 85 4runner, and this thread is more less just going to be a place that i can put links/info that I find so i dont end up forgetting stuff and having to search for things Ive already found. If any one has any links to builds/swaps they know of post them up, but mainly Im just going to start putting every thing I find in here.
What I want in the swap:
1.To be able to run a mix of homebrew bio and pump diesel
2.CHEAP- the cheaper the better, what is cheap? Right now I dont know.
3.Power comparable to a 22re (112 hp at 4600 rpm and 142 ft·lb at 3400 rpm)-3rz (150 hp at 4800 RPM with 177 ftlb at 4000 RPM), I would like 100-125+ horses and 125-170+ft/lbs more is better, yet still be reliable.
