Gasoline to Diesel engine conversion. Gasoline engines can run diesel as long as the pistons are comparatively stronger, the fuel injection system being solenoid powered, and a few other parts which had been made to be just over their tolerance to internal combustion in gasoline.
I really don't understand how you could derive these costs. Things like these have to cost little to nothing when in the near (to the point of near unlawful) vertical monopoly that is a car industry. Take Fuji heavy industries, for example. They already own the machines required to manufacture car parts like this, and have enough money invested in their respective raw materials' futures, so they always get an agreeable price on the raw materials, and the cost of each part would therefore remain low and constant.
