Questions about a Gas to Diesel conversion for a '72 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking at converting my '72 Chevy with a 350 to a diesel for the sake of fuel economy and because the sound of a diesel is amazing. I'm not overly interested in power, but don't want a weak engine either. So, I have several questions I was hoping you fellows here on the forum could help me with.

-What kind of engine would be good for a simpler conversion?

-About how much would such a conversion cost?

-What would be the steps to converting to diesel?

Thanks!
