The only thing that would be of concern is if the hood line is lower on
the coupe than the sedan, making the engine too tall. A person would
probably just have to measure the height of the engine to see. If would
have to be a 617 from a 75 or 76 300D though, which would be hard to
find. You cant use an engine out of a 123 because the oil filter
housing is in the wrong spot and will not fit.
