I am running into a few issues with this engine swap; my issues are as follows:
1. the engine does not seem to be parallel in the engine compartment [/ /] and I am not certain which side the longer of the two engine supports belong. I have swiched the two mounting arms and the engine sits straight but is offset to the right [ | |] is this correct?
2. the fan from the 350se engine is hitting the 108's radiator. I have noticed the 108's radiator fan is very close to the radiator and is a different design campared with the 350se. Is the fan from the 108 V8 the same as the inline 6 fan for the 108?
3. the 350se exhaust manifolds touch the 108's frame and have a very tight clearance.
I suppose I am now looking for the following parts from any 108/109 with the m116 or m117 engine:
L/R exhaust manifolds
fan blade and clutch
correct radiator with shroud and oil cooler in decent condition
lower steel oil pan
I really need these parts so I would be happy to purchase them from anyone who has any of the mentioned parts available.
BTW Thanks again to Tony H and Jengasan for the pictures
