Plus all the other non-mechanical stuff— bellypan, wheel spats, Moon disks and airflow management inside the engine compartment.
All that will approximately equal what you can get from the engine swap, and if it's not enough there's still boat-tails and single-wheel trailers.
[nice hubcaps on that diesel wagon]

That may not be a Diesel wagon so I edited the topic. The hubcaps do look aerodynamic though.
And I admit I don't know a thing about the power a 1.9 or 2.2 Diesel engine would have in a Station Wagon like this that is at about 4,400 or 4,500 pounds curb weight. I have to ask first. At first I thought a 6.2 would be necessary, Now perhaps not?
