300 D power

Well I finally found all the parts I need to use the 5 cylinder diesel out of my 75 300D to repower my 40's model WWII 6X6 truck. The truck had a small inline flathead 6 gas motor.

What are the specs on this motor. I'm pretty knonwledgable on diesels and I was curious are there any common mods to these things.
Injector tips
Inj Pump advancing?

If possible i was thinking putting a very small blower like off of a mazda on it and "turning the fuel up" if possible. I have two injection pumps so i might have to experiment some.

Whats the bore stroke on this thing, compression ratio, valve lash, construction (rod material (cast, forged)), How much a head gasket costs?lol
