The correct diesel for a 756 is the D-310. These last forever and were not used in many tractors, so you aren't just going to find one at the local salvage yard, and you certainly wouln't find a good one cheap. A D-310 from a 715 combine will be easier to find but will not easily work, as the tractor flywheel will not bolt up to it's crankshaft. It would also take a few mods to make a D-310 from a 756 fit your 756 gas, like throttle linkage, frame rails, ect. The big old 361/407 could be made to work with a few more mods and some 806 frame rails, but once again, it's hard to find one. The 414/436/466 will also bolt up to your clutch housing, but they are way wider than the older engines, and you would need to use 66 series frame rails and make spacer plates to go between the frame rails and your front bolster. The easiest diesel to put in would be the D-282, as it's block is almost identical to the C-291 block. D-282 was in most 706 diesels, so you could use 706 parts and make it look "almost" factory. There will still a few mods involved, like throttle linkage. However, the D-282 is built no heavier than your gas engine. If you really want to go all out, it is possible to repower an old IH with a 3.9 or 5.9 B series Cummins.
