Glad it got you back home, Brian
Well, the #22 head is a HUGE plus!
No oil burned on the trip MUCH better than before!
The immaculate interior also big ++
No issue over the rear end clacking, if its like the 124 cars the control arms need to be replaced YMMV. (I lived with more than a clack for many months - make that a CLUNK! Darned rubber should last longer than 18 years and 260K miles!)
I wonder why it sits low? is there anything in the trunk? A big sack of gold maybe? Weak springs possibly?

An ALDA tweak will probably peak up acceleration off the line so the boost comes on smoothly.
I'm sure we'll be hearing about this for the next several months.
Another Benz rescued from the junk yards!
