190E 2.3 vs 2.6 engine bay differences?

What is the difference between the engine bay and front end of a 190E 2.3 and a 190E 2.6?
I know that the hood latch bar over the radiator can detatch on the 2.6 and not the 2.3.

The reason I am asking is that I have a 1986 190E 2.3 8v that I am putting a newer engine into. The engine I am putting in is a 3.0L I-6 from a 1986 300E.
I need to know what has to be changed on the front end to make it fit. I know that the radiator and A/C condenser need to be moved forward to accomodate the longer engine.

What do I need to change to make this all happen, and is there anything else that will have to change?

All help and suggestions are greatly appreciated. Pictures would really help too! Thank you in advance!
