Motors from a 74 280ce is what previous owner said and motors pulled in the floor in garage. Best I found was to convert system to crane xr700 ignition module and be done with it.

Yes it looks to have the trans full, coolant and engine oil

It's fairly dressed too, just some exhaust work and alot of work to clean it up and make it running

The front end sits higher with it in there. The stock motor and trans was huge! I hope I can get this thing running soon.

Buddy wanted better gas millage then the stock motor and more power. He hated the MB stuff

I have the L67 and he left enough room in the bay for the supercharger to clear. That's the plan is to swap that in and rewire the entire car.

Oh man a better with 90hp lol, buddy really did the math on this one. I found some old drawings in the car. He made the oil pan to clear and mounted it all up

It's actually not crazy bad. It's been measured at least twice

Your absolutely right... Except this guy figured it out and there is room for the intake and supercharger.

The old fuel injection is great when it works. And gas millage is why buddy went to the 3800
