240d 3.0

For those of you who may be interested, I just finished converting a w123 240d to a 240d 3.0. The m617 used was a Euro-spec motor originally set up for manual transmission (617.912.10.xxxxxx) and the chassis was a manual trans car thus making it a simple conversion. The original 240d motor threw what seems to be a wrist pin of all things after 289k miles (will know more once I tear it down). The project took three days from start to finish and came out seemlessly. This is the second of these that I have done and I love the end result. Here are photos of the conversion.
