Hello,

I have a N/A 1981 300CD and I am looking for donor turbo motors. I wanted to know if anyone had any good resources for finding motors, I live in Southern California. I also wanted to know if all OM617 motors would fit for this. I am currently looking at
http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/car/623587384.html for a donor car and wanted to know if there is anything to look out for. Thanks in advance.

Don't destroy a good car just for the engine, find a parts car thats been wrecked.

I know of a wrecked car with a Turbo Motor in it....


I can get more info on it if you would like... Its fairly inexpensive.

Hey Iwrock,

That would be great, do you happen to know where it is located, because I would rather avoid shipping charges. Thanks

you guys should talk, the suspension and body are bad but engine sounds pretty good from the description
