May need IP for '80 300TD

Arrgghhhhh...
My MB ownership, which is just a month away from being 1yr has been expensive and unpleasant! OK, whining over for now.
My indy mechanic checked with his parts compatibility source, and found out that the IP for my '77 300D parts car isn't compatible with my '80 300TD. There are 2 that will work on the '77, and 2 that will work on the '80, but they will not swap with each other.
He is looking to see if he has one laying around, but if he doesn't I am gonna need one. My old IP is already off of the wagon, so I will need to get one fairly quickly.
On the side of my IP from the '80 300TD was the following:
KW 375\2200MW 27.1
On the IP from the '77 parts car was:
KW 350\2200MW 19
Also, the wagon had 135 bar injectors, and the '77 sedan had 115 bar.
I know I am asking before I know for sure I need one, I am just trying to be prepared.
I would actually like to drive this wagon some day when it actually ran correctly. Is that so wrong????

Have your pump checked.

They charge $60..0 here to bench test your pump and $700 to $1100 to rebuild it. I just had a 1997 300e pump rebuilt and it cost $1100.00.

My pump is bad. It has been checked. I don't have
$700 to have it rebuilt, hence my request. I'm just hoping someone has one laying around, or a parts car that may have one.
I just want to drive my MB again, and it has never worked correctly since I've had it.
Like I said, my wagon it at the mechanic's with the IP already removed. I'm just tryin' here, that's all...

I have one from a 1980 300D sitting in my basement. Condition is unknown, but it was "supposedly" a good one that was to be swapped into the motor, but the motor decided otherwise before they had a chance to install the new(used) pump. Anyway, LMK if you have pics of your pump, that might help with matching.

This one will be cheap.

Thanks Tom, I'll let you know. I don't have pics right now as the car is at the mechanics house, but the numbers on the side are in bold in my first post.
Motors never cooperate, do they?
