As it should for anyone contemplating doing it.
Wasn't it GM a couple of decades back that had the big fiasco of blown
engines when they tried to convert their existing gas engines to diesel?
Jim,
Yeah, GM's very first line of passenger car diesels were merely
converted small block Chevys. It didn't work so well. But, I would
hope that in the ensuing decades some new technologies have developed
which might make this a more feasable option.
Happy Flying!
