[QUOTE="TreeClimber, post: 984190, member: 16101"] It is a massive amount of work to switch a rig to a diesel. Everything you can possibly think of will need replaced. It's like trying to make that 300 sedan into a wheeler. HUGE job. Plus, you will go to mega-torque with very little engine RPM swings. RPM is your friend. You want to pull thru the power band as you accelerate up hills. With a gas motor, you can pull from 800 rpm to 5000+ rpm. With a D, you'll be lucky to ever hit 3000. Don't do it. [/QUOTE]
