Tragic 300E Story II - Happy Ending

Hello everyone:

This is a continuation of my orginal post (http://http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/showthread.php?t=187372&highlight=tragic) where I talk about my recovered stolen car.

When taken to my mechanic, he does confirm that the car had a blown head gasket and cracked heads. Adding to the injury, the transmission was shot.

Luckily I found a great engine and transmission with just under 105K both from the same car. Happily, all is installed and working well. The engine runs surprisingly smooth, transmission shifts very well. Of course I have to run the car a while to find out all the unkowns.

I left the car with my mech so he can fine tune the engine and figure out why the exterior aux fan runs continuously, even on cold starts. I'm currently combing the threads for solutions about the fan.

Thank you for the replies to the first post and I will keep everyone up-to-date with the events and most important bring my questions to the forum for unfound solutions.
