Not to hijack the thread mongo, but if you are looking to go with a sprinter motor you are in for some torture. The electronics on that thing basically make it inseparable from the transmission from what I gather. I was looking into this as a conversion option last year and there's about enough wiring and brains in those things to fill a bathtub. If you can make it work you are the MAN!

You would have to use a mechanical pump or know someone that could reprogram the computer.

Exactly... the EFI talks to the gearbox... so unless you could adapt a mechanical injection pump you would have to get an expert involved. And I doubt if you could ever get the motor to run properly without the electronics. Modern diesels are heavily dependent on it.
