I posted the other day an was advised not to try putting a turbo diesel setup (which I already own) on a same year non-turbo car. Here's situation...
I own a 79 300sd which has a blown motor. My first plan was to buy an engine (complete, running) from a friend and put it in. Now I've run into a 79 300td in good shape that I'm considering buying instead of doing all the engine transplant work (I kinda like the wagon feature too).
In going with plan a I would have a load of spare engine parts making keeping the car going a good amount cheaper in the event of parts going bad.
Now I'm not sure if the turbo engine parts (injection pump, injectors, etc., that I already own) will even work on the non turbo engine.
I'm at a crossroads and am not sure which way I should go.
