That's what the manual says, but I changed a 617.912 that had driven an
automatic to one
That was true on OM 621, M180 and others, I believe including some of the
early 300D engines. By 81, the 616 engine has the flywheel independently
balanced. I put an OM 621 flywheel on an 81 616 after grinding off the big
counterweight, and balancing the flywheel
What Craig is saying is
Nope, different flywheel and you can't swap the flywheel because the 300D
flywheel and crank are dynamically balanced together.

The flywheel difference is more of a matter of weight, not size (the the
5-cylinder flywheel is larger, just not in diameter). You can get by
FYI as far as automatics are concerned, the flywheel is the same for the
4 and 5 cyl, turbo or non.
