" It's called indirect injection and quite few older engines
worked that way,
" including the IH 7.3L used in Fords and the Nissan 3.3 in Jeep
trucks.

indirect injection does not work through the intake port.  it is
true
that many truck and all sub-truck diesels are or were idi; i
forgot to
add that in addition to scaling down, they're also generally
more
rpm-flexible than direct injection, though computer control is
erasing
that.
