After much reading on diesel trucks and available modifications i ended up selecting the best WVO modification system on the market and backed into the trucks that they support.
My research also lead me to the V3 Veggiestroke system by Dino Fuel Alternatives. The primarily selling points for me are the full automation of the system, the very quick switch over time (so that it will be useful on my shorter drives as well) and the high marks everyone gives them for customer service. As i mention in my blog introduction, i am book smart and experience poor. I expect i am the type that asks alot of questions, these folks sound like they can handle it. The system is likely to cost me around $6k including custom tank, gauges and installation.
The Veggiestroke system supports late model Dodge Ram, late model Ford Excursion and Ford Powerstroke from the mid 90s onward. Given my total budget is around $15k, this leaves about $9k for the truck which will push me back to the late 90s Ford Powerstroke 7.3l.
