I am working on a 1985 280SL Euro for a friend of mine. I have been working on Mercedes for over 34 years but I normally don't do heavy engine work. That was always my brother's specialty but he passed away a few years ago, so I am stuck with this repair. I prefer interior work, restoration stuff, general maintenance, etc. (Anything but heavy engine work). Anyway, the engine on this SL was overheated and blew the head gasket. We pulled the head and had it sent out for repair. The machine shop did an excellent job, now it's time to reinstall. I have done a search on here and the google machine and can't seem to find the cylinder head torque specs. I did find specs for the older M110 engines with the standard head bolts. I believe these are stretch type head bolts because they use the spline socket instead of allen head. Does anyone happen to know the specs for the head bolts? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. CF.
