Standalone diesel engine management: http://www.twinkam.co.uk/shop/page/8?shop_param= This opens up many possibilities for diesel engine swaps in the future(not specifically talking about our engines). |

Now when enough Sprinters get wrecked or rusted out, the engine can be placed into a GC, with the right adapter plate. |

Well, the OM647 was originally equipped in the WJs, so I'm not sure fabricating new parts makes sense over obtaining off the shelf OEM parts to convert one...... |

Thats the same reason I need to use a PCI gauge cluster from a TJ in my MJ/XJ CRD swaps. |

Awesome looking vehicle No more work in the past month or so, all sorts of other things going on right now so I am not sure when the dust will settle and I can get back to it. If you really want a diesel WJ I would seriously look at importing a engine/wiring harness from the UK for that purpose, would make things much easier. |
