Just get the block off plate like the M117 have in the R107... I have the swap going currently for my 420. Same goes for the reverse, the SLS pump will fit an M116.



Worst case, why not pick up a Euro 5.0L and drop in there? Performance should be a bit better, just a bit less torque. Those are common here, I got very lucky when I nabbed my 5.6 for next to nothing.
