If so I guess this was a non turbo 300D and now you've effectively turned it into a turbo one correct?
Vacuum system - what did you do to it when you changed the engines over?
Throttle linkage - same question

All the needed parts came from the running (before the trans went out) 1984 300D-T (throttle linkage, vac system etc). The trans is the original 1981 (722.1XX?) including the torque converter. The guy I got the donor car from does not think it ran rough at all when it was running for him.
BTW: the donor car I bought is the car that I started a thread about last year when the trans went bad. He was driving it to run some errands, and parked it. When he came out to drive it to the next place, the car would not move in any gear (forward or reverse). After being towed, we changed the fluid and filter, but still no movement. I would like to get this trans fixed eventually, but don't want to pay the big bucks to have it totally rebuilt. I am sure it is something simple.
