Reputable used engine sources? - Wyle E Coyote - 02-16-2010
After not finding what I was looking for with the search tool, I decided to just post the question. I'm interested in a good used OM617 to drop into my 240D, or possibly a 4wd project I've been toying around with. Anyway, I'm asking for help finding reputable sources for engines and other assorted parts.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Metric motors but it aint cheap. Otherwise maybe car-part.com? There is always craigslist and a compression tester.

Or look over the classified sections of the various Mercedes forums like..
peachparts.com
benzworld.org
mbworld.org
On a side note, I do have an extra engine that I can let go if you get desperate and want to pay top dollar
. But shipping would probably be expensive though. .

There's a fellow here in Memphis with several good engines. You don't have to pay top dollar, I've seen good running cars for $500. If you're interested let me know and I'll get you his contact info.
