There are many small changes that would have to be made though, and they have to be done right, like the ignition switch, wiring, computer and changes in the fuel lines.
Hmmm yeah I think it might be pretty possible, it's like you said, it was meant for that same body. I might look into it one day if my current m103 engine fails me. I love the 87's and it'd be nice to pop it in the engine bay of an already familiar 300E or I guess D after the engine swap lol
