I'm selling a very nice 77 SLC on e-bay for a customer. A letter from Mercedes says the engine is a '78 with ID 3 11796012 000482. 3278 built. The owner says it's an iron block 5.0. I'm trying to find out if this is correct so I don't mislead anyone. Any help out there?? Is this engine desirable in a warmer up SLC - check out the pictures.
You can see the car on my website.

Thanks,
George at AutoLinc.US
