It's not done yet and I am not the owner, but you guys should check with the
girl that is building this:

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.

Re: [jeep2diesel] Deisel Jeep Conversions
Here is her quote from our local board:
"This is our second repower using this engine. The first was a 1980 IH Scout
II, which came with a pathetic Nissan 3.3L TD.
The motor for the ****** came out of a Frito-Lay truck. I got it from Avant
Salvage (Diesel Depot) in Georgia. Mine is 1990 4BTA, 105hp 265ft-lb torque
@ 1700rpm. It can be boosted to 120hp and 300ft-lbs @ 1700rpm by just
turning up the fuel pump. They say they can be purchased from Frito-Lay
Fleet Maintenance, but I didn't look into that. This engine is still in
production.
The engine weighs close to 900# when fully accessorized. The Dodge Cummins
6BTA is close to 1200#.
A 4BTA is the same engine as the 6BTAs used in the Dodge trucks except that
2 cylinders are cut off. Any transmission that will bolt to a 6BTA will bolt
to a 4BTA. Practically any Dodge or GMC/Chevy truck transmission can be
used. That includes Turbo 400, 700r4 (see note), 518, 46RH/E, R80LE (?),
NV4500, Dodge Getrag 5-speed. There are several commercial truck
transmissions that will also work.
Note: Though they say that the 700R4 can take the torque, they don't last --
even behind the GMC 6.2s and 6.5s.
You don't have to be a rocket scientist to install one of these, but you do
have to take into consideration the torque and weight. We found with the
Scout project that the 4BT will eat D44 axles and u-joints so the ****** got
upgraded to a 3/4-ton chassis. No sissy stuff."
