DIESEL ENGINE SWAP!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Friends,
Just bought a 280SE (AT), the car is in perfect condition in terms of body line. The car is currently running on a stock W116 petrol engine. I was actually planning to do a swap on the car with a I6 turbo diesel engine without any mounts modification. The transmission is in perfect condition so I would like to use the same tranny as well. PLEASE SUGGEST ASAP.

There are no I-6 diesels that will fit without major modifications. No i-6 will fit your transmission.
