Nothing new?

Well, very interesting thread, perhaps I can help to clear something.

-The M116 (350) was from the factory fitted with 4-speed manual or the 76/27 A5 5-speed option. it is a very rare beast but I have one on my 280 SE 3.5 Coupe.
- The M117 never had manual tranny but there where several AMG/Laufer conversions (450 SE/SLC) to Getrag 265 with the M116 clutch and flywheel.
- If you want to go up to M117 with 5liters the only with nearly the sam pattern is that one from the 450 SLC 5.0 (1800 units).
-If you want more than (560) you have to make a new motor-endplate.
-Fitting a M119 is more difficult, there is a carlsoon 500 E with Porsche-tranny, the Renntech 500 E with 6-speed. I think which type of tranny dipends where you live. In Europe a BMW 540/M5 is a good deal, in USA I think the Tremec (Mustang ) unit is perfekt for the jop. In any case the 3.5 flywheel fits on the crank and the endplate had to be made for this combination.

Next problem: M119 is KE-jetronik (first) or LH-Jetronik later, perhaps a megasquirt or VEMS would be easier than adpting the whole eletronic in a 190E.
