I would say get one of the newer (70's) straight six gassers

-1982 300D Turbo, 280k miles, ALDA apparently maxxed, fram 8038, 12 lbs boost, non-egr manifolds, W/M injection, 4 brake light mod, Gen II w126 front rotors/calipers, 4-speed swap
In the works: A/W IC, adjust pump, turbo rebuild (w/60 trim comp wheel)
-1980 300SD, 110k, project car. Goal is to get it lookin' like it did on the showroom floor (body and interior wise, not necessarily under the hood )
-1974 240D, FRESH PAINT!!!!!!

Any pushrod domestic should fit, otherwise make yourself a slant 6 from any of the I6 engines.

was thinking a turbo m104, just want to keep it Mercedes powered a 606 with a 602 pump would be easy to do the wireing and get good power
