Highly unlikely....its already a tight fit with the OM647.
You bought a van with a 300k engine but can't afford to replace it with the proper engine?
Why not source a used OM647 with lower miles? I'm sure they are out there...
Also, a 617 would be WAY underpowered to push that huge van around....it only has 125hp!! The OM647 has around 180, and a lot more torque.
