calling all 60 series owners that have done a 12HT or 1HDT swap...
i posted this question over in the diesel tech forum - tons of views - no replies.
(for what it's worth - i've posted several questions in that forum and no one ever replies)
question is about smelliness of exhaust. do we reuse the existing cats? do our cat converters on our FJ62's do anything to clean diesel emissions? does the exhaust smell like raw untreated diesel exhaust (which can be headache inducing)
i'm hoping to embark on a 1HDT swap next spring - and my wife was asking if our camping/roadtripping rig is going to smell bad with the diesel engine.
hoping for some real world feedback from folks who have been down this road already.
thanks,
PD
