Asked by Barbur Nov 07, 2018 at 08:12 PM about the 1988 Chevrolet C/K 3500 Scottsdale Extended Cab LB 4WD

Question type: Car Customization

I have an 1988 Chevrolet Scottsdale 1 Ton Crewcab with 4 doors and a 7.4L/454 engine. I would like to get better fuel mileage and change the engine to a good diesel engine. What would you suggest that would match the current engine mounts or need minimal alterations. Thank you!!

1 Answer

Perhaps the 6.5 liter Detroit diesel installed in Chevy trucks from 1994 to 2000.
