Re: [DML] biofuel for Delorean?

["Joe Klingler" <galaxiejoe67@xxxxxxxxx>]

Been a reading of the DML for a long time but this is my first post. 
A diesel conversion would be intresting, I dont know why but a few
days ago I was think about this topic. the quickest engine swap would
 be the GM 5.7, 4.3, or the 6.2 diesel. Your other option would be to
run a industrial Kubota, Isuzu or other work engines. But I dont think
that the 5-speed would have the correct gear ratios to take full
advantage of the powerband of a diesel engine.  What is the weight  
of the PRV V6?
