wich engine for off road mercedes G
wich engine for off road mercedes G
hi, i have a mercedes G for off road, original its a 240gd with om616, now it has a good om617A engine. I also have an OM605 engine laying around and i have a 6mm mechanical 5cil diesel pump (element from electronic om605 pump). And i can also get an 2.9 om602 engine cheap. now i can't decide, i was thinking about putting the 6mm pump on the 617, ad a bigger turbo or vnt and intercooler. But i was also thinking about putting an VE pump on the om605 since i know a guy that works at a diesel shop and does tractor pulling, he knows a lot about pumps and has experience with the 2.9 om602 engine. What do you guys think?

i am gona go for my current om617A engine, if this on breaks i will put an om605 in that i already have. I am gona try to fit a 6mm om602 turbopump (elements from the electronic 605 pump) and see how much fuel i get, if this is not enough i will sent it to dieselmeken. I have a custom vnt turbo made at a turbo shop, it will be ready in 2 weeks. Currently i am fitting my intercooler, it's a tight fit. I also got a pipe welded to the manifold.

OM617 is a strong engine, so i don't think it will break, if you have enough oil cooling

Now I have OM605, lighter for offroading than 606, very happy, but I have slow ratio axles from G280 for better torque.Got my mechanical pump and thinking to get it to mayna maybe in winter... Thinking about VNT turbo too...
I had Om617 TD in my offroad G... After it somehow lost oil, old turbo or winter driving in woods without protection it broke... Now I have OM605, lighter for offroading than 606, very happy, but I have slow ratio axles from G280 for better torque.
