Arrow WTB OM616 engine assy in SF Bay Area

Hello!

If anyone happens to be parting out a wrecked 240D or swapped up to a 617 turbo, I'm looking for a complete running OM616 engine assembly, from the flywheel forward. I don't need the a/c compressor or the power steering pump, but if the alternator's still attached, that would be nice. If the car was equipped with a manual tranny, that'd be good (otherwise I need to find a m/t flywheel).

Please reply or E-mail me with your asking price; I'm not sure what this is worth, and I have to admit that I'm on a pretty tight budget. I'm okay with an engine out of a W123 or a W115, and as long as compression's okay and the engine runs without any serious issues, mileage is unimportant.

As mentioned, I'm on a tight budget, so due to shipping charges on something that size and weight, I have to stick to something I can pick up locally. Anywhere in the San Francisco Bay Area's okay, and I could go as far as Sacramento or Fresno (or possibly L.A. as I have family there) if the price is good. I'm willing to do the engine removal, and if it'd be possible to see the engine run (and check the compression) before following through, that would be good. I haven't scoured junkyards yet, but that's just due to lack of time...

Thank you!

Well I am close

Well I have a 1980 300sd engine with a fresh valve job 0 miles on it. It was a first MBZ project car and we foolishly hired a mechanic to work on it he told us it needed a valve job it probably did. Got valve job done $150 for machine shop work bunch of other money into it. Cylinder walls looked great but after firing fool we hired because we thought we were in over our head found low compression all cylinders would sell it just for cost of valve job $150 located in south san Jose Or would trade it if you could get the IP timed on my 240d with a 220d engine in it I am so frustrated trying to get bottom bolt off PS IP most likely needs to come off have alignment marks lined up then drip timed if interested Any other trades considered mattdave@pacbell.net include Mercedes in subject line

Dave, thanks for the reply...didn't see it before just now.

Unfortunately, the Toyota's engine compartment isn't long enough for an OM617, so I wouldn't be able to use that engine. Maybe I can find someone who wants to trade a 616 for that engine...?

To THE WARDEN

I am open to any trade deal I am easy it is just taking up floor space right now I did forget I pulled the turbo off it and the intake and exhaust manifolds have been changed to non EGR valve manifolds for off road use only of course I can even provide spare IP alternator, Water pump and miscellaneous parts at this point there just taking up space.
