Realistically it wouldn't be feasible to convert a diesel engine to gas. Diesel motors require much greater compression - enough that it could cause an explosion with a gas-configured motor. Plus, diesel doesn't use ignition or spark plugs, and the fuel pump/fuel ignition systems are completely incompatible.
