I didn't mean to come across with a negative attitude regarding G baodies, just wanted to be realistic. Putting a new $10k diesel in to an old G body you buy for $1000 isn't going to make it an $11k car. Sure, I guess anything would be "fun" if you have an endless amount of money to throw at a project, but the truth is most of us don't, and at least to me it would be a lot more fun to take an old 350 with my kids, tear it down and rebuild it, and put it in to that $1000 car and have something that would be a lot of fun to build, more educational, cost a LOT less money, and may actually increase the value of the car a few hundred bucks, nonetheless have a great chance at being 100% driveable. I'm not saying different and unique things can't be done such as using a diesel, just asking how smart of a thing would they be to do? If YOUR kid went out and bought a G body for $1000 and asked you for $10k to put a new diesel in it so he can try to blow away that Vette at the strip, I'm pretty sure not too many of us would be handing them the cash 😀
