WANTED: Turbocharger from 1985 turbodiesel
My 1985 300TD turbo is shot but the only one that will work is from the 1985 model year (300D, 300CD, 30SD, 300TD). The earlier version from 1978 - 1984 will not fit! Andrew 202 251-8333, squasher@rcn.com

That is incorrect, assuming you have a stock setup.
If you have a california model from '85 you can use any 617 turbo by indexing the compressor housing to align. ie.. just loosen some bolts and line it up. If you are concerned about that silly actuator on the front of the turbo, it can be deleted or you can swap compressor housings. |

The 1985 had the ARV pollution crap on the turbo and the Cali version had an odd ball intake set up with the huge cali air cleaner. You could by pass all of this and just get a non-Cali set up, e.g., EGR-less exhaust manifold, et cet.

My 1985 cd has a kkk instead of the garret. They were using both in 85 indiscriminately.
