Converting the 2.25 diesel engine into a petrol engine, is it possible? it's simple? I understand that you have to replace the cylinder head and remove the high pump and put a distributor, the pistons also? Tanhks

Don't forget to add a carburettor.

Thanks for the help, I think it is better to buy a petrol unit, but maybe it is still better to install a v8 3500, what do you think?

If I had to replace my 2.25 petrol, I'd look for a v8 but I reckon good uns are getting pretty rare.
