Without going into the gorey details I have a hole in the block of my nice new to me 1980 300SD. It just so haapens I still have the engine and tranny from my 83 300SD. The older tranny only has 150,000 mi while the 83 has over 300 but was shifting fine. Can I mate the 83 engine to the 80 transmission, or is there a crankshaft pilot problem?
