As to a diesel swap...if you really want to go that route...assuming GM makes diesel engines with the same bell housing pattern as a 350, you can get adapter kits for chevy V8's to the metric bell housing. Of course, unless you find a used one, it will probably cost more than the car is worth.

Since it's no easy task, the sane route is to buy something that already does what you need of it and call it a day.
Nobody will touch a Volkswagon within 100 miles of me, and I don't know enough about Volkswagons OR Diesels to be confident taking one into my possession right now
