Gas prices are killing me! I own a small Landscape/Lawn care business so gas has really started to hurt me.
A little about the rig I am wanting: I have an 89 BII that I am toying with. Im putting a D44 front and GM 12 bolt rear. I am wanting a powerful rig that is efficient both on road and off. My original plans were a 302 swap. When gas prices started really flying, the thoughts of bio deisel came to mind. I then started researching the Cummins 4BT 4cyl. deisels to enable the bio deisel. I realized that these engines are expensive to work on, parts are often hard to find, and the engines are hard to find and expensive themselves.
Right now Im torn on the deisel for its downsides. If you were wanting to make a really fuel efficient rig, What motor with what mods would you go with?
I was thinking low 3.0* gearing front and back with 31-32" tires. What engine would you want to toy with?
