Very Nice.

With the price of fuel going through the roof you can't beat the diesel swap.

Considering it for my 1979 and 1978 Broncos.

Would it be possible to get some tech info on this job from the fellow that did the swap?


TIA,Rick.

I'd be very interested in the cost as well. I have access to an un-molested EB Bronco and a 7.3

hmmm....

Awesome! I wrote several letters to Ford while owning my three various Broncos- kept telling them they needed to drop a diesel in that little tug, couldn't build 'em fast enough...loved my Broncos!
