Hi mate you should have no probs with the Di wiring - use the existing petrol wiring will be ok if you use an earlyer Di

You have to weigh up the amount you are using the van to see if its really worth the swap. ive just took a Di out of my MK1 there a great engine but so noisy in the mk1s and 2s not too bad in the later mk345s ones they have more soundproofing!!

I have a 2.5Di fitted to my 1979 Ci. But with the original gearbox (overdrive).
As has been mentioned, Billybun is the feller to speak to.
