First off, I take my hat off to you folks who take the path less traveled.
Here is a short list of links you should consider for stuff that will help your project along.
THE MOST AMUSING THING IN THE WORLD WOULD BE TO DO A FACTORY LOOKING SWAP AND SHOW IT TO JEEP!
http://www.novak-adapt.com/catalog/electronics/tj_xj_crank_position_tach_emulator.htm (Please let Eric know why you would like his converter box, his company deals only in Jeep products.)
http://www.davco.com/DFP_biodiesel.htm (I used the older 234 filter in my B4 Passat, they are very cool)
http://www.jdjeeps.com/crankshaft.html (just another reference to keeping the factory computer happy)
http://www.dieselcraft.com/engine-oil-cleaning.php (I would have installed this in my Passat if I could find a place to bolt it)
http://pabiodieselsupply.com/shop/oil-centrifuge-55gph-p-347.html (the low buck option if your willing to fab your own mounts)
http://www.novak-adapt.com/knowledge/465_to_amc.htm for use with Lakewood RM-4082, maybe not confirmed.
a quick google for "jeep hydroboost brakes" also might be eye opening.
A General purpose duel pattern GM/Chevy adapter would be cool, in say an S-10 or K-5 Blazer.
EDIT~~~ May/18/2012 condensing the links.
http://www.mi-uk.com/products/access...wheel-housing/
LOCAL policies governing gasoline to diesel engine conversions, some places are very strict and others are so lax they are contrary to Federal requirements.
Pennsylvania seems to be pretty liberal in what they allow on their roads. for reference only is a link to a shop that does 4BT conversions. http://www.jeffdanielsjeeps.com/jd/diesel.ashx when contacting them I was informed it is a non issue, just a matter of scheduling a special inspection to verify that it is in fact converted, and the formality of submitting some government paperwork that changes the title and registration papers to reflect that the vehicle now runs on diesel fuel.
New Jersey = Unless it was a factory option, forget it. it's not worth the stress and aggravation.

California = http://www.autorepair.ca.gov/80_BARR...uidelines.html
