Just curious if anyone out there has figured out an easy solution to the
starter location/fuel tank interference problem with this conversion (using a
diesel bell-housing);I really don't want to use an adapter plate from
Kennedy,or 'chop up' a perfectly good fuel tank.I have a few ideas myself,
just curious if anyone has successfully done it yet,and how. I'm getting
geared up to start on this,having the engine for a year now,and Otto,s heart
about ready to quit.Got all the diesel pcs. FREE from a friend who's
converting to a Buick V6. Also,planning to add an intercooler,as well as bump
up the boost a tad.Any views on a good 'cooler to use,something recycled?Can't
wait to get it all together,should be quite a ride! Gearin' up for the S.
America trip,if it happens! Thanks in advance for any input you might
have,everyone!
