Yes, the donor 190E 2.6, WDBDA29D9KF560808, was a runner and donated sheet metal to another 190E. I plan to install the 2.6 and trans together. The receiver 300E with the locked engine presents the problems of what do you do to separate a trans from a locked motor. Anyway, I feel the locked motor and trans should pull out OK. Unfortunately, I do not know the rest of the story with the 300E and will find out the hard way. Fortunately, it is absolutely beautiful.
