I've been looking at a 400 diesel but want a gas. Can they be converted with a head,manifold, and distributor or would there be other things to consider. I don't know anything about diesels and have heard they can turn into a money pit in a hurry.

You could convert one from Diesel to gas if you had a parts tractor to rob, otherwise you'd probably spend as much on the conversion as having the injector pump reworked, or more. If the Diesel is running and no problems, I'd leave it the way it is, better on fuel and will start in the winter if the charging system and batteries are good with a little shot of ether.

Forget it. If you want a gas tractor, then purchase a gas tractor. If you try conversion you will ruin the diesel tractor and your wallet.
