Re: [jeep2diesel] Deisel Jeep Conversions
Geez! Didn't you read the the link, these are today's and future
design diesels that are too dirty to pass California, New York, Vermont,
Massachusetts and Maine, emissions standards!

Re: [jeep2diesel] Deisel Jeep Conversions
I had a 70 Chev 350 1/2 ton and got the same mileage empty or full or
towing a Valiant for 2000 miles at 55 mph.
That thing basically just burned $10.00 per hour gas, period.

Re: [jeep2diesel] Deisel Jeep Conversions
It's not done yet and I am not the owner, but you guys should check with the
girl that is building this:
http://community.webshots.com/s/imag...8BpYvIA_ph.jpg
She has a ton of information and this is her second conversion.
BTW - None of the engines I saw listed on your site are what she used.
