Swapping in a 6.9 or 7.3 IDI would be fairly simple, just need all the parts from an 87-92 diesel truck. Converting it run a Powerstroke would be alot more work since you would need a computer, wiring harness, injector driver module, etc, etc, etc. With enough time and money I'm sure it's possible, but it would be easier to just trade up to a 94.5-03 truck.
