68 Camaro Turbo Diesel Conversion/Restoration

Interesting engine choice. Any particular reason you went with the Volkswagen motor? I've seen a first gen with a Duramax, but never anything like this.

What do those things weigh, and how much hp and torque are you expecting out of it?

Torque is what moves the car and there's plenty of that in those TD's! Keep us posted!

I say this is cool. I like different. You'll definitely stand out amongst a crowd of LS equipped camaros (and firebirds). I do agree with the other folks, though- post some pics here, too.
