Are W123 Turbo and Non-Turbo 300TD Wagon Cylinder Heads the Same?
I have a 79 W123 300td non-turbo wagon. At some point a previous owner swapped out the engine with a W123 300d non-turbo sedan engine. I'm not sure what year the replacement sedan engine is but since it's also a non-turbo I would guess it's an 81 or earlier. Of course the SLS has been removed since the sedan engine does not accommodate it. My goal, at some point, is to rebuild the SLS system which leaves me with two choices. I either swap out my sedan engine with the correct non-turbo wagon engine or I swap out the cylinder head from a wagon engine instead of an entire engine swap. My question is....
Does anyone know if I can use a cylinder head from a turbo wagon engine for a non-turbo engine? I found a cylinder head from a turbo wagon locally for a very affordable price but I'm not sure if there is a difference between the turbo and non-turbo cylinder heads. Any thoughts?
