yes anything is feasible with a lot of money, to do that swap you be better off and way ahead buying a truck with a 460 or 351, a crate 7.3 would even be cheaper. If you were in CO I have a couple cheap runners for ya.

I would not even consider the swap to gas it’s a big money pit to go backward. Your trans won’t bolt to either.

I was also considering just finding a decent running gas truck and just swapping my cab and box. I live in Iowa and my truck is very clean. So if I could find a gas truck and just swap body's that should get me up and going as well. I'd really like to get to a gas engine. Just not a Diesel guy
