i think if you just did the engine mounts for the ffpw and the nv4500 mounts you'd give someone like me the start they'd need to do the rest. i would do one if i had mounts - i did a helitool install, and i know with the mounts, i could complete the diesel swap. i know its not easy, but having done a few trucks now, i have the required skills and tools and follow through. i agree about the many variations, but by offering one proven solution -- yours -- would seem to be a good place to start.
charles talbert has done a number of them now, but does not offer kits or parts to the general public. im sure he can bang out the mounts and has patterns.
id love to see someone do a battlefield insert like mars offers on the hercules engines.
