haven't had time to measure, since taking delivery of a 1976 300D with a wounded motor... but can the vaunted 617.952 go in here? I'm thinking something may need to be changed re: oil filter housing, but what about the manifold side of the motor?

What a car! Would like it even better with the power of my 300SD (not literally, that SD's never being dismantled!)
