[diesel_mercedes] engine swap

 

hello,
   I've been lurking on this list for along time. I have an 84 300sd that for the last three yrs. has been driven 110 miles daily. done a lot of work to it, if a problem is mentioned on this list I've done it, almost. this list has given me a heads up on everything about the car. for example: car would no longer go into forward, I knew about the b2 piston (had to drive the last 4 miles home in reverse in a snow storm)

   I just finally broke down and bought a new car, vw golf tdi, great car. the benz is still going, one of my kids jumped right in it.
  OK, so now to the subject, and good friend of mine has a 78 240d that he would like to drop a 617 into, I told him I think its doable. he has a line on a running 300td. the price is right....take it away. I told him the trans should follow the engine.
 If anybody has first hand advise about engine mounts,etc I would appreciate it.
  thanks for everything,
   sean    long island, ny
