I've been looking into doing a diesel swap for a while now, and really like the idea of going with an engine from a 90's VW. Possibly a 1.9L TDI? Similar to what they did on Extreme 4x4 with the Sami. Or a VM Motori 2.5L engine (don't know about the availability of that one..) or even the 2.8L VM Motori that came in the Liberty.
Basically I'm just curious as to how difficult such a swap would be, how hard it would be to find one of these engines, and what something like this might cost.
I really like the idea of getting in the 20-30 mpg range, and the possibility of running biodiesel/SVO.
