Diesel Shop
 
Anyone know of a good diesel shop near southern WV? Perferrably one that does performance work and/or swaps? I've got 95% of my 4bt / 1995 F-150 swap planned out, but I can't decide if I wanna tackle it myself or bite the bullet and let a pro have at it. Only things that have me concerned are that I might have to modify that engine mounts from autoworldmt and trying to fiqure out the fuel system.

Modding the motor mounts shouldn't be that bad, if I have to. Just makes me nervous.

The fuel system is gonna be a challenge since I'm gonna have to do it from scratch. I'm thinking using a FASS lift pump/filter unit rather then reuse the stock gas fuel pump and a regulator or by pass line. But I have no clue on what size or types of fuel lines I need to use or how much fuel pressure from the lift pump I? HELP!!

RedZer where are you located?

Right now I'm in Morgantown to finish school, but originally from McDowell Co. down south.

There are a couple diesel shops in and around Morgantown.
Mech2161 can line you out on where they are.
See this posts about pulling.

Pmalsey was trying to get a shop together in Beckley/Charleston if I remember right.
But that is about it as far as I know for down south.

Thanks Dave
