700 / 900 Parts Compadability - Best Car for a Diesel Swap?

There are different engine crossmembers for 8V and 16V cars---16V has a welded on steel motor mount bracket on one side, 8V has two removable aluminum pedestals. The diesel may be different as well. Good news is that the crossmember is easy to change, and you have the correct one for the diesel.

A 16V car (89-90 740 GLE, some 940s) is probably your best bet, as it is the only one you are likely to find with a blown engine in an otherwise nice car, due to being an interference engine.
