Default Advice on Diesel Swap & Heavy Diesel Mechanic Skills for 93 02 Camaro

Hey everyone,

I’ve been digging into engine swaps and saw some wild builds, and it got me curious about expanding my skill set. While my car is currently gas powered, I’m thinking ahead to possibly doing a diesel swap project down the road or at least understanding heavy engine systems better.

For those who’ve worked outside typical LS swaps, what do you wish you knew before tackling a diesel conversion? I’m looking into formal training and community resources, specifically how Diesel Mechanics experience translates to performance car projects like ours.

Any tips or lessons learned?
