Cost effective??? It may seem so at first. Then you run into all sorts of issues trying to make things work as well as MB had intended. That's when it starts to get costly, time consuming.

I would repair the original MB engine or seek out a good used one. Chances of resale would be much better.

Speaking of resale... anyone want a sleeper W108?
