Brad,
I am not the expert, so take this with a grain of salt.
The Mercedes Turbo engines had an integrated overflow tank. So get that when you get the radiator. It will be difficult working out a place for it, etc. But it will help your radiator do a better job, because it helps remove bubbles from the cooling system.
(On Ford pickups, the name for it reflects that it is removing bubbles. Trying to adapt one form a Ford pickup would be difficult, but the one from a Mercedes Turbo should be easy to adapt and worth the effort.)

My 1981 240D needs a radiator. It has a manual transmission so I do not have to worry about tranny lines. The AC has not worked for decades so that is not an issue. The one and only Mercedes in the local pick a part is a 1983 300SD. Will that fit my 240? Did Mercedes do anything like change the location of the hose fittings.
Thanks, Brad
