Hi - It took a while but I had to fit the conversion into lots of other jobs I am working on. Cost - The most expensive parts were the relays and the fuel pump - I guess the total cost around £100 or so. . . . .
I loved the Oil Conversion Series. It gives a great brief overview of the converting to oil proces. You mentioned you were producing an ebook detailing how to fit a conversion. I would like to have a copy. Where can I get this please?
Great Videos mate...Maybe the money you save on fuel you can put towards a better camera lol..But still brilliant...Gonna convert my nissan D21 crew cab pickup soon..It's an import and as far as I know the only one running in the country..The other one that i knew of has just been shipped to Nigeria..Can't make up my mind about the heating system. 2 tanks or a plug in pre-heater ..Don't have the time or cash right now to do what you've done..How much time and cash did you spend on it?
@deankdx Hi again - It takes a little bit of modifying some compression fit reducers. It would probably be easier to make a small vid to explain - I'll see what I can do - basically you have to get a 15mm to 10 mm reducer (or whatever size you use) and then you need to drill the centre of the reducer out to 10mm so that the copper pipe can fit through. Normally there is a ridge to limit the copper going straight through - fine if you are doing a plumbing job but useless for oil conversion LOL
@deankdx - Hi - Yes the oil is in the 10mm copper pipe and the water is in the rubber pipe - you need to use radiator standard rubber hose to stand the heat . . . Mac

is the hoses/pipes going front to rear the hose in hose style?
has water in the rubber and oil in the copper pipe? or is there somthing else you have done?
look forward to seeing the filter process too thanks,.
