Fred Lucabaugh is just a little back southeast of you off Rt 30. He can probably point you in the right direction for that neighborhood.  717 451 6590

Thanks for the tip
Reached Fred on his cell phone
He recommended Miller Diesel Inc.

They look like they might be kinda high end
They have semi trailer wreckers for towing
 
Anyone else have any suggestions?

Jim, what's wrong? I'm the diesel guy at a Ford dealer here. The IDI engines are pretty simple compared to the modern day stuff.
