Don't even think about a 617 powertrain in a W124. Either fix the engine or get a used 606 motor to drop in. If you're a glutton for punishment, a 603 turbo powertrain would work, but getting things like the cruise control to function might be a real trick. A 606 turbo would be the holy grail but that would take tons of custom work and probably a Myna-Diesel massaged manual injection pump ($1500) and elimination of almost all the computer controls. Would be lots of fun, but not easy nor cheap.
