Most american 300s came with the auto. Search under 240d. Many more of them came with the stick trans.
If you have an "Indy" repair shop near, they may have some laying around.

05-27-2014, 01:46 PM #10Chevy flywheels weight about the same. You want a post-86 pre-93(?) v8 flywheel. Will need machining but it's heavy.

Edit: I also prefer the idea of a 616fw with inertia ring because if my flywheel needs to be replaced I can just transfer studs and ring to new wheel. I won't bother trying to find and buy another 300gd fw, not worth it at all to me.
I'm working on making an inertia ring for my om616 flywheel. I haven't had much time for the mbz lately but I came up with a basic idea. Replace pp bolts with longer studs, fasten pp with lock washers and nuts the fasten the inertia ring on the studs with lock washers and nuts. The ring would be 1" steel with a bevel on rear outer circumference and recesses for fasteners. May also need a square groove on outer front circumference to set into flywheel for clearance. I think I can add 10lbs to the 616 flywheel this way and not need a 300gd flywheel. The larger clutch disc is nice but for the money I can have a custom clutch built and still save $$$. I tried to order a 300gd fw from Germany and got screwed when it was mysteriously lost in transit, had to have my bank step in and force a refund.
