I've heard of 5.7 GM diesel, my sister in law had a 1980 sometime oldsmobile cutluss that had one in it. They were pretty much a 350 gasser made into a diesel, GM didn't make em for very many years. I've never heard of a 4.3 diesel either.

Ahh yes, the 4.3L. Only bad thing about them is you get them hot once, and you warp the aluminum heads big time. But they aren't a bad engine either. Seems like they got real good fuel economy, when they ran. BTW, welcome to DB.
