I think that someone here is running a 3.5L pump in an '87 300D. From memory though, he didn't turn the RPM up so he's running 3.5L top-end, but he said at one time that it seems to have more grunt at low-end.
I'm dragging my feet a little on installing the 3.5L pump, trying to get a set of 606turbo elements for it.
If it all works out, I'll probably pop for a chassis dyno run when finished. No baseline run, but I think that there are a few stock '87 300Ds out there to compare with.
Just need to get that data-bus thing figured out, don't want to be staring at an ABS light on my dash.
