Interesting read....still have pages to go. so they could have the Toyota flywheel redrilled to the Benz pattern and have no holes overlapping. That solves the clutch disk problem on swaps.
As far as parts sources......I'd look at the JDM market from engine importers.....lot of used stuff from Japanese market cars make it over here for a fraction of what the US Market stuff goes for...and with far less miles. Cars get scrapped at low miles because of a tax that increases the older a car gets. As well as Vehicle inspections, even worse than the MOT in the UK that makes California codes and inspectors look like amateurs.
