Found a 87 190d turbo today, gotta head ?
 

Went to look at a 300sd, almost nothing worked, runs a little rough ,Cheap, then I spot a 87 190d turbo, also for sale, pass. door is dented and won't open, door sills should be good though, front windows,AC and front fan, and wiper don't work, runs gooood, needed jump but start right up, some light black smoke for a minute. Took for drive tranny shifts nice and firm, turbo spools up and accelerates quickly (I've owned 2 gas turbos before) excellent oil press, temp 90c, let it run and drove for about a hour but not on freeway. Anyhow the head # is 603 016 14 01 is the the "bad" head? Car has 170k miles no details on previous owner yet- he's selling for a friend.

Evidentently the PO replaced the 2.5 5cyl with a 3.0 6 cyl. It seemed a little quick for a diesel!

What did he do with the 2.5 engine?

The 2.5L? That came stock in the 190DT. The 3.0L probably came from a C class as the 3.2 and 2.8LC280 engines are able to drop in place.
