Found out the Detroit 60 Series could run on 100% biodiesel with just a kit

I was reading an old service bulletin from a shop in Spokane and they mentioned installing a conversion kit for a fleet of trucks. It let them run straight B100 in the winter without gelling, which I thought was impossible for that engine. The kit was basically just a heated fuel line and a different filter housing, cost about $1200 per truck back then. Has anyone actually done one of these conversions on a Series 60, or is it more trouble than it's worth?
