Have a 83 500SEL that had a 300D non Turbo installed.

Hi All
I picked up this 83 500SEL with a 300D non Turbo engine dropped in.
The power is not bad , nothing likes what it would have done originally, that lay rubber for a 1/4 mile.
But power is still much better than my 78 240D 4spd. When going up hill.

My main Question is the engine seems to shake very violently like a wet dog when idling or in gear, I havent look under as what kind of engine mount of if any left. So tomorrow I will try to look under to check her out.

Anybody had similar experience with diesel conversions?
Any info will be appreciated.

Nonetheless the car will be great when i have all the bugs ironed out.
