I have, the engine swap i was looking at doing was the 3.4 swap as it is less intensive than trying to swap for something like a Mercedes diesel. I figure the 3.4 is a more effiecent v6 and the engine will have less effort at speed. It also bolts right up to my current transmission. If i were to change out engines for more work i could do the 22re that used to come in these trucks, but it is not a straight forward swap. I also have to contend with california smog laws and im not sure they would look kindly on me importing a diesel from another country. But i figure for now id like to do what i can with what i have, (i figure this engine has at least another 50k miles before it quits.)
