Who has a depot repower?

[Recovry4x4]

Does anyone here know or think that they have a repower from gas to diesel? I'm looking at something here and have questions. The right rear frame mount that supports the bellhousing is different from the gassers to diesels. If one has the former gasser, can you check to see if the right rear mount is Hot Riveted or bolted in place? Should be 4 bolts/rivets near the back of the right spring.
Thanks!

I thought your truck way back originally had a Gas? What year is it? I am pretty sure it was already decided you had the gas fenders....

A buddy of mine (who is still not on this forum as far as I know) has a Studebaker M35 that was originally a gasser that was converted to a Multifuel... I know that there are several "oddities" about how the engine is fitted. If you don't get an answer from somebody else by Sunday, PM me and I'll run over and crawl on/under his truck (can't get to it before then...).
