anyone have any experience with a diesel conversion? does it have to be a diesel to begin with or can any waterboxer be fitted with a new diesel engine? heard there can be lots of grief to get conversions running rightly..... jeff westy hunting Mfgavia@aol.com wrote:In a message dated 2/6/03 8:29:26 PM Pacific Standard Time, haewolius@YAHOO.COM writes:

I bought an 82 diesel westy with the intention of replacing the engine with a new turbo diesel engine. I should end up with between 80 and 90hp and a bit over 30 mpg. No engine electronics to worry about!
