yabbutt you don't have 4WD, locking diffs, manny tranny (can I say 
that?  Manny?  Tranny?  Manny tranny?), and high ground clearance,

Re: [MBZ] 300GD

2009-01-16 Thread ernest breakfield 

hi Peter!

   sounds great in theory, but i've found 4 cyls under the hood of too 
many old 300s to believe that's always the case.
   i suppose they could have been swaps, but i can't imagine anyone 
going to the trouble to make a swap that seems to be going in the wrong 
direction. (i know of some turbo 617s that have been swapped in, and 
that's much closer to my ideal vehicle.)



cheers!

from what i've seen, early 300GDs seemed to have either the 616 or 617
(non-turbo).
