Subject:Diesel Engine Swap

Howdy Gruppe,

Can any of you engine swapping gearheads out there tell me if a diesel
engine out of a 1980 Dasher will bolt up to a 1986 diesel transporter?

The junk yard doesn't know what flavor the diesel is in the Dasher, but it
runs and drives well in the rustbucket body. I have a 1.6L NA in the
Transporter.

Anyone know if this would work?

TIA,
