94 Power Stroke conversion.

Let me bounce this off you guys. As alot of you know I've been on the hunt for a single cab 4x4 dually with a 5 speed. I want to build a sled truck. Well I came across a 94 for the right price. I didn't buy it yet.

So what I want to know is, If I do have a complete donor truck, how hard would it be to convert the IDI to a powerstroke?

Is the PCM cubby hole there?

Is all the wiring different?

What about the fuel system?

Let me know what you guys think.

With a donor truck is would be a matter of swapping parts. All the PCM provisions and what not are there. Not sure about throttle pedal studs but that is easily fixed. It would be complete engine and dash harness swap though.

Fuel system? I guess it depends on if you are pulling stock, but a swap would be a great time to go with electric fuel
