John,

Since you can place both cars side by side, I think that this will actually be one of the easier swaps.

MBs tend to be set up to take any available driveline as far as the chassis goes, and since both of yours are from the same timeframe, i.e.: post 400E, any changes made to accomodate the 400E should be present in both of your cars.

I would imagine your biggest expense may be to replace specific items to the 606 that were damaged in the wreck, like a radiator that may have different in/out points between turbo and non turbo, but the rad mounts will be the same.

Jim
