You get the best mileage(they claim) converting to the 200-300TDi. But those are also the most expensive in the US. The 5.9L Cummins is up there with them however. The 200-300TDi, Mercedes OM617 engines would need at least medium duty front springs.
The others would need Heavy Duty and maybe more to support the additional weight.
