I'm preparing my kit of 'transplant parts' to stuff a 617.952 engine from a
1981 300SD W126 into a 123.190 300TD body.

I think I need:
1) a W123 oil filter housing, to get the attachment point for the mechanical
gauge supply hose;
2) 123 oil cooler lines
3) a 300D turbo exhaust 'head' pipe, although this may not work, need alteration due to different exit geometry at the turbo; and a new
muffler pipe, which is larger on the turbo than the N/A cars.
4) accelerator linkage & pivots from a 123
5) 123 motor mounts
6) 123 fan, although these might be the same
7) A/C lines

Someone thought i MIGHT need:
a) a change in upper pan, though this might only apply to W116 300SD sourced engines;
b) a change in vacuum pump, but its not clearly required except for
availability of proper plumbing

Anyone able to verify the last two?

Am I leaving anything out? the original W123 engine is long gone, so I'll
probably be looking for a 'pick n pull' in north san diego county with
available materials, too.
