Would the Liberty diesel fit a Wrangler?

Is it very hard to put a VM engine from a Liberty in a Wrangler? I
have a three year old Wrangler (TJ) that ate a valve out of warranty
and I want to put a diesel engine in for mileage even though I know it
really makes more economic sense just to go to the junkyard and get
another stock engine. My neighbor says that a non-Jeep diesel would be
a better bet such as a Toyota 1HZ or a Mercedes five cylinder. What has
to be changed out beides the wiring, mounts and transmission?
In my state they do not inspect for emissions on a diesel.

I'd say the entire fuel system (tank/lines/injector system/etc).
Hmm, just found this too which might give you some idea:

I think you should immediately take out your engine out and start
taking measurements.
What state doesn't follow federal laws?
