Core size is 10.5" (26.67cm)x 22" (55.88cm) x 3.5" (8.89cm) with overall length of 32" (81.28cm)
Made the mounts such that the whole assembly comes with the bumper mounts.
I did have to trim back the lower radiator support a little:

Reinforced with thicker steel and flat supports:

A little clearance in case the bumper gets lightly tapped:

Had to make a stainless hard tube to get around the om603 oil lines and squeeze down by the AC pump:

Some IC tubes:

Even put the splash shield back on to keep water off the alternator:

Oil cooler splash shield:

And the fuel pumps. Going to try and use one of the w126 gas pumps with an aftermarket regulator to hold the 1.5 bar:

Next just need to plumb the fuel lines and see if the pumps can handle the more viscous diesel fuel...
Had a few more hours to put into this one, got the intercooler plumbed up and mounted, and started on the fuel system.
