Hey fella's,

Been a while. I love my gen 1 but almost never drive it because I can't afford to put fuel through it except for BAD snow days and a few hunts close to home. I have been pondering a solution.

A friend of mine offered to GIVE me a good 1983 Mercedes 240D 4cyl diesel engine if I could make it work in my Gen 1 Monty.

(1.)Is that doable without the conversion being cost & labor prohibitive to the point of diminishing returns?




I would not mind to do a Pajero diesel swap but I can't find the motor and stuff.
(2.)Where would I look?

Thanks so much,
T
