You want the 300D engine with the 300D differential if you chose to change
things around. Others have covered most of the pitfalls. adjusintg the
linkage seems like the easiest way out.
NO, the Gasser trans is not an interchange for the Diesel
Somebody might want a 280 twin cam. Is yours a Euro?

Thanks for all of your input! Have any of you or anyone you kow ever
completed the swap from automatic to manual? Just curious.
Last week I purchased a 1982 W123 280 gasser due to its price and close
proximity. Although the body is rusty, it has a good running straight six
complete with dual overhead cams and a factory split manifold exhaust
system. Would the automatic transmission out of this car work behind my
five cylinder diesel? I would imagine that operating RPMs are
similar. Is there a market for this inline six motor? Anybody need one?
