About all the IHC 263 gas and 282 diesel engines have in common the water pump and the red paint!

Also keep this in mind: In the mid 60's General Motors engineers converted a V-6 truck engine (the "Toro Flow"), and in the late 70's a V8 car engine (the Olds 350) to diesels - both with disastrous results. There's a valuable lesson there!
