I'm going to say no so you don't waist your time.
better off pulling an engine out of a HJ75 cruise of something. Actually, I'd love to know how a falcon would go with a 3ltr turbo from a BT50

how close to original would a 4.5L 200kw Landcruiser V8TT Diesel engine look compared to the original and would it have to be inspected and how efficient would it be on fuel

(including cost of new engine)

An E-series with a powerstroke in it would sound sweet!
 Perhaps you could just fit a Toyota 1H-DT or Nissan TD42

Diesel in a falcon or converting the engine to run diesel - Of course you "could" do it. It just isn't worth it if you are looking for economy. The initial cost would far outweigh the savings for a very long time!
Best bet is to go a liquid gas injection setup on your current falcon, or sell that & get a BA, then get liquid gas injection on that. A Xr6T would go rather nice on liquid injection, you wouldn't need a bigger FMIC to run a fair bit more boost, as the gas would help cool the inlet charge. Cheers ToranaGuy

I have seen a diesel powered EA fairmont before (I was searching turbo falcon on google a while ago looking at setups to turbo my ED falcon) and came across a EA fairmont ghia that had a 2.8 Turbo diesel hilux mootor and 5 speed in it but for the life of me i cant find it again was in australia tho was on a mod forum somewhere looked sweet and like it was at home. If i find it ill post pics up or atleast links.

If i find it ill post pics up or atleast links. That's a 4cyl engine, and i don't think they come in turbo format in the earlier hilux. Surf version has same engine & could have turbo version. You can get after market kits for them, my g/f's bro fit one to his 98 hilux (I think it's 98), but his is the 3lt 4cyl. Rebuild kits are not cheap for those engines, but they do take a lot of abuse before they die! Toyota coaster mini busses might run the same basic engine..... Cheers ToranaGuy
