6.5L GM Diesel Crate into '81 K5

[Andizl]

Has anybody seen or done one of these swaps. I have a tired 305 right now. I'm not sure about doing a rebuild and running diesel in a new crate would be awesome. Just trying to start researching it. Thanks for any help.

I forget which mag it was, diesel power I think Did a spread on it. But I saw only the first stage of it. Ill see if I cant find the Magazine and post up the links for who they used for their engine.

Lots of people are going diesel and there are lots of options. The GM 6.2 or 6.5TD, Cummins 4BT or 6BT, seen one Perkins.

thedieselplace.com is another good site.
