My friend is selling a w123 if someone wanted to swap the turbo engine into one of the older cars.

Well, it's currently connected to my shot 617/W126 project, which is on hiatus until after my shoulder surgery.

I actually have three total, but from what I am told, one needs rebuilt, while the other one was shorty before the timing chain broke. The third one is behind the good 617, but its condition is untested.

I am contemplating his car, but if he would be interested in holding onto it and doesn't mind waiting, I could sell my good extra 722.3 once I know the one destined for my W126 is good.

I know the turbo om617 doesn't just "fit" in the w114 body. The turbo basically gets in the way and those cross braces cause a fitment issue as well. Probably not THAT hard to figure out though.
