It is pretty easy to put a diesel in if you know which parts to use, especially since 706"s are so similar to 806"s. If seen several 7"s with 400 series engines that look very nice. As for the 301, you wear 2or 3 out and replace them for the money you would probably spend in parts and labor on a 263. You can by whole combines for couple hundred dollars. I"ve got a 460 with a 301 in it out of a 715. Just re-ringed it, new bearings, reground valves, drilled out the jet and honed out the #35 venturi some and worked over the governor. Made mid 90"s on the dyno with pump gas(93) at about 2600-2800. You can also spin these motors well over 3000 with out any problems. Or if you want to go big and stick with gassers, put in a rd series 450 or 501. I"m puttin one in a 560 right now. Not as easy as puttin in a diesel, but will make plenty of power. Any way you go, that is the great thing about IH, you have so many options because so much is interchangeable!
