6.2 diesel swap in an m37
Has anyone done this? How hard is it to do?

I have not done it, but I would think it would be no harder than any other engine swap. If a 308 or 361 will fit then the 6.2 should fit. You'll need to either swap the transmission or make up adaptors to mate it up. You will defently be doing some fabrication work.

Daniel Tibus did a diesel GM conversion and made a very nice job of it too, you can contact him on daniel@tibus-offroad.com or at the website http://www.killeraxles.com/html/kontakt.html - also, I am not sure but I think he sold his M37 so someone else on here may well have it and have all the info you need :-)
If you want the best axle conversion too they do a wicked portal axle setup which allows for CTIS and disc brakes as standard.
Take Care

Ok I am diffidently going this rout now as I have a cracked block. So I am wondering if anyone has any pointers on how to run the stock transmission?
Thanks
