OilSlick--Hi from Mike in Miami. When you swapped --where you going from an auto to std. or vice versa? I have 2 MBs(both 240s)---one a '77--std.tranny and an 82-(240)with an auto tranny.82 has a blown engine.--I want to swap the whole engine&tranny from the '77 to my 82(after I have removed the blown motor and tranny from it)--This a possibility or too much work?? Any advice appreciated. Thanks Mike
