Oh really?  This is good to hear.  So an OM60x has the same bellhousing 
as an OM 61x?  Does the 201 transmission need to be from a turbo?  If 
so, I guess a 124 trans might work, too.  Interesting to note that the 
722.3 transes had 040 torque ratings (or whatever) while the .4 units 
are 020.

Speaking of parts interchange, I learned today that the Gullwing, 
Porsche 356, and 404 Unimog all use the same gas cap.  Big sucker, too.

Thanks guys,
Tom
