I think you have the MB GM compressor. If so: Nope! entirely
different. Mixed arguments about GM compressors. Some say only a
new one from Q because a GM GM compressor won't lube mounted in an
MB. (upside down.) Others claim they have used GM GM compressors in
place of MB GM compressor by modifying.
I have some extra MB GM compressors, so I am not concerned for now.
THe japanese swap is for the japanese compressor. You can find a
compressor and swap the clutch and mounting.

I did a writeup that is in the archives somewhere abut how to take a
junkyard japanese car AC compressor and turn it into a 80s vintage MB
compressor.
Hm I'll have to hunt for that. Any idea if it would also apply to a
late '70s W116 OM617?
