If you swap to a Toyota Diesel, and have a mechanic do the work, it will cost about 3X the cost of a 2F rebuild - including the engine. Engines vary a lot - from a non-turbo B 4 cylinder to a turbo'ed 6 cylinder $1.5 - $2.5K up to $7K to 8K for a 1HD-T.

Do your research carefully. I am still looking at this, and am budgeting about $10K total, if I do it.
