Wow, those look like factory manual pictures of working on new
cars. Sure must be nice to live where cad plating never goes away,
and steel never rusts and the oil never leaks off of old Diesels and
turns everything black! All my 20 yr old Diesels have had no cad
plating since the spring aft

You are correct. With automatics I often refer to the flex plate as
flywheel. Incorrect, I know, just one of my quirks. Sorry for the
confusion.

I was responding to Mathieu's statement: "First off the flywheel will
require balancing to match that of the flex plate on the m617."
I also thought that the flex plate would be insignificant, which is
why I asked for clarification.

Flywheel, not flex plate. The flex plate is pretty much insignificant,
but a Benz flywheel is not.

Are the flex plates on the auto 617s realy balanced with the crank,
etc.? Doesn't seem like it has that much mass, and would be close to
balanced out of the box. Now I konw that when I had a V8 balanced in
the early '70s, they wanted EVERYTHING that was attached to the crank.

Craig,
Just because you got lucky does not mean that all m617s will not
require the flywheel to be match balanced. Each motor is different and
MUST be handled on a case by case basis. A good machinist typically
charges under $150 to match the balancing, sometimes even far less than
that. Is th

Having done this myself, I can say this is not really necessary.

Kaleb,
You will have a few obstacles to overcome. First off the flywheel will
require balancing to match that of the flex plate on the m617. The m616
had neutral balanced flywheels where-as the m617's flywheel was
balanced with the crank at the factory and is not necessarily neutral
balanced.

For those of you who may be interested, I just finished converting a

set up for manual transmission (617.912.10.xx) and the chassis was
a manual trans car thus making it a simple conversion. The original
