I recommend that you call Mike Elias, the manager at Metric Motors in CA. He has been very helpful to me on questions like this. I think that they are www.mercedesengines.net or something like that. Phone number is 800-622-6867.
i concurr that mike at metric is very knowledgable and willing to help. i have also bought parts from him that nobody else keeps around like glow plug chamber shims and subtle things like that that are required to do a head or engine job correctly.

if i ever buy a complete unit refurbished it will be from metric because of mike.
