with the price of gas and diesel now propane looks real good at 2.20 per gallon here and around 700.00 for the kit to convert it, the diesel kit would cost way more than that.

It would be allot harder on a 16 valve and kind of pointless accept for the cost of fuel and if gas is hard to come by. plus the distributor would have to be modified to an older 8 valve type in the internals.
