I meant to say, the 350SD head would look kind of funny on the five-cylinder block. Although, Rich, don't you have access to all kinds of nifty milling equipment, etc.? Just swap the 2.5-liter into the 126, put the 350 head on top, and cut off the part that sticks out... ;) Alex _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
