I'd used the rebuild tranny.
1985 W123 diesels take a different transmission and a different injection pump than the earlier ones (81 - 84). There are vacuum valves and lines that run between the injection pump and transmission that are unique to the '85. Hence the two parts are married to each other. Either transmission can be used, as long as the corresponding injection pump is also used.
