What do you have to replace?  It depends upon what % of biodiesel you use. 
Less than 50%, you do not need to change anything. If you want to run 
straight diesel EVERY RUBBER PART which contacts it will need to be replaced 
with  viton . Straight bio has mixed reviews. It would be a good idea to 
have a backup motor ready to drop in if you are one of the unfortunate  ones 
who discovers it doesn't do as advertised.

I have to change the fuel tank in my 1980 Diesel pickup and want to know if
it is difficult to convert to Bio-diesel. As I understand it, all I need to
do is change the fuel lines. Is that it? What type fuel line and how much do
I need to complete the conversion? John
