Gentlemen

I d like to swap a running motor from the 114 to the 108

It's a 6cylinder w/2carbs -m130? (both cars seem to have same motor)

The 71,114 body 250 4door sedan has a nice motor -no smoke starts right up
But transmission slips in 2nd gear.

The 71 ,108 body 280 s 4door sedan has been sitting for 26 years! The motor overheated ,previous owner disassembled motor and there it sat for 26years.

So I m thinking the motor swap should be fairly straightforward -my gamble here is the 108 's transmission -no info available I m assuming it was a engine issue and 26 years ago the transmission was fine -a guess .The 108 has 90,000 miles(based on odometer today and maintenance records from 1985)

So guys ,what's your guess on this transmission s condition after sitting all these years ? Any suggestions for preparing this transmission?

Also ,what other parts /pieces might interchange from the 114 to 108?


Thanks
