Doing the opposite - transplanting a Toy into a Chevy
Newbie here. I want to buy a Chevy Astro van and was shopping around for diesel engines that might be suitable replacement for the gasser v6. The toy IHDt puts out the same amount of horsepower but a little more torque - OK by me I am looking for external dimensions of this engine - height x length x width. It would also be useful if I can find a power curve for it. Any ideas where I can find this info? Also, is it possible to mount this engine at an angle rather than straight up and down? I am guessing that this engine is going to be 4" or so taller than the V6. Also, how is this engine lubricated? Will this work with biodiesel or even straight veggie oil?
