I also really like the fact that the 2.8 cummins is available as a crate motor. there are endless possibilities. I would love to swap one into a second gen taco, t100, first gen tundra, first gen bronco, scout, jeep etc..
Serously… I’m curious…. what is the attraction or any significant technological or mechanical advantages with a diesel engine over a comparable gas powered engine swap in a 4-wheel drive vehicle? Gnarls.
Put a pre 98 diesel engine in a pre 98 truck and avoid CA smog tests is the advantage.................
for the record, I didn't say I wanted to swap a 2.8 diesel into my mini truck, I listed larger trucks that the 2.8 would be nice to have in. I've already swapped a 3rz in my truck and I am extremely pleased. I would never consider putting a chevy motor in my Toyota, just doesn't seem right to me especially since the Toyota 2.7 and 3.4 are such good candidates. the 4.3 and 5.0 engine swaps were something people mostly did in the early 90s before we had good toyota options. are you planning to buy your swap parts from NWOR?
