What is meant is that Ford designed this
engine as a gas engine then when there was
a market they adapted the engine - block,
bearings, crankshaft, pistons and all - to use
as a diesel. A diesel has much higher
compression / stress on parts than a gas
engine so they weren't the strongest engine
around. Because that engine started as a gas
engine is is often said they were converted (
by Ford ) to a diesel. Don't worry it is not
somebodys back yard conversion.
I hope this helps you.
