Wasn`t an objection Greg, when you mention some people tried, that could be read as it didn`t work for them or they gave up etc.....

I was just saying some of us didn`t just try to do the swap, work, project what ever you, us, them, the committee of they, want to call it and we continued on and finished the project.

I have read different threads where the poster said if MB wanted a Turbo Engine with a Manual Trans they would have put one in at the factory. There must be a reason they didn`t do it.

I betcha there are a lot of people that read this forum that do some of these projects that do not sign up and or post what their accomplishment was for fear of being critiqued. Shame.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
