I just picked up a 92 300TE , body is nice , a few minor issues, windows sunroof stuff like that . It failed emissions on nox by a bit, rather than spending money on fixing the gasser motor I wondered about the feasibility of swappung an diesel engine & trans from an older TD. The 603 engines are expensive and rare but the 617 engines are cheap and plentiful. Less power I realize but maybe a practical project. anyone ever done it or a similar swap. I have done engine swaps before so that doesen't scare me. Are there any deal killers I should know about. Cheers Dan
