Before anyone kills me for posting this!!! I am very new to all of this and I know nothing!!! Please be patient with my ?'s. I have no idea what I am doing, so please explain in simple terms.

What are the limitations for putting in a new diesel engine? I know people use a hercules, cummins, perkins ect.. Why do you use these engines? Are they the only ones that fit without modifying the body. Are they the only ones with enough power, torque(I am not really sure what that means, but it sounds good). Are they most compatible?
How about the engine below (the link) or how about a diesel from a VW. (Calm down calm down , just trying to learn here)Why is a chevy popular and not a ford or volvo or fiat or whatever? BMW made a diesel that was also in a lincoln(I think). Would they be good engines to use? How about a mercedes?(remember just trying to learn here)
