Looking for hp/bhp/torque ratings on the 300SD motor from 1981-1985, numbered 617.

Also looking for what the transmissions (auto) part numbers are that would work with this motor.

thanks!

According to the owners manual for the 1983 300SD the output according to SAE is 120 net-bhp@4350rpm. Torque is not listed, but I believe it is adaquate.

Here is a MB diesel spec sheet that I ran across recently. It's not completely accurate, but it's still a good guide.
