6mm elements are available from Bosch and were used on the 98-99 E300D. All the other M pump elements available in the US are 5.5mm.

Impossible that the cam is different! The elements are interchangeable, so stroke must be the same.

Yes, but this increases the turbo lag and indicates that there is sleeping power unused.

The larger volume exits in the same period of time. Peak pressure rises, better for atomisation and still far away from upper pressure limit of the pump.

The HOLLY-elements are "hand made" by a couple of smaller companies, due to the number of pieces. Important is the material, the mill job, heat treatment and final individual lapping. And of course the pre calculation for the design
