(02-10-2012, 12:59 PM)lgreeley83 I have a 240d 1978. The radiator just crapped out on me. Eventually I want to throw the 5 cylinder turbo motor in it. So while my radiator is dead I know later on I will need the bigger radiator, expansion, tank, maybe the oil cooler?

Anyone got a turbo rad I can buy?

Also this plan of the engine swap.....Anybody got a 5 speed manual that goes good with the swap?

Anyone live in the Chicago area that I can contract the swap to?

I am going away for a while in the summer and figure I can just leave the car with someone to take their time on the swap for me. I have big plans. Eyes are probably bigger than my belly as they say. Get the motor in with everything running right, later on, bigger turbo, modified injection pump, intercooler. I want a beast of a mercedes. Also those African market springs would be pretty great.

5 speeds are a rare find. Here is one for you.

Also I'm pretty sure the same person can get you a turbo radiator.
