Could a machine shop add 10 pounds to an OM616 flywheel?
Has anyone done this? How much does it cost?

I suppose he wants to gain the coveted 38# flywheel instead of his 28# flywheel.

What happened to the 38# FW you mentioned in your other thread?
Some where there is a thread on this question. Charlie

My kit is going to be released about the first week of May, it includes a nearly 40lb flywheel of a larger diameter to use that weight even better, and bolts to a readily available five speed overdrive manual. People swap Ford and GM small block V8s into 126 bodied cars, so the transmission I have in mind should fit.
Yeah, it doesn't use a Mercedes transmission, but there is a ZF model that will bolt up. I will be offering a kit for automatics about six months after the manual one, provided there is interest. This will give a variety of hydraulic and electronic overdrive auto options, but will require additional parts and electronics depending on the transmission. I think this would go a long ways to ending the "how-to" debate, and potentially save people a lot of money and stress over a lot of bits that weren't brought here in any real quantity. |

Also, there is a guy in the area who has a 1983 300TD with a 4-speed, and it *may* have a 38#, but I'm not sure. He seems to have dropped off the face of the earth, though, so I am considering my other options.

The clutch for the 300D flywheel is the same as the kit for the 240D flywheel.
