RE: W116 hood: unique to W116 or will W126 interchange?

Thanks for the responses. I'm sure I saw a 300SD with a good hood but I think it was a '78-'79. Knowing that a W126 hood won't work helps me gauge the value of the hood(s) I find. I'll definitely pick up the $50 hood. How about the W126 grille (will it interchange with W116)? Please say yes as my Ebay purchase will be here any day now. If no, then I'll be scouting for W116.

I'm looking forward to driving the M110 engine as I like inline engines. I have a spare engine with low compression U.S. emissions market specs and I'm wondering if anyone has tried two small turbos (T-25's or the like) each onto one of the Euro cast-iron manifolds? (It looks like one could be flipped around for clearance).

When I looked at the forum topics I didn't see a W116 forum and I thought...looks like a W126...must be essentially the same...Thanks for establishing this forum and saving me from buying the wrong parts!
