Not sure really. The car had been modified before I got it with parts from a manual SL or slc so it stands to reason it could have euro parts or even the whole engine. It had euro lights. Assuming not modified it's a 78 450slc with a 180hp 8.0-1 compression. It's definitely not a 3.5 so I don't think the trans donor could have been a 4.5 correct? No euro 4.5 manuals exist right? I don't think it's 4.5 euro 225hp fast. But maybe it's got the better euro cams. I have to say I'm liking the idea of just boring a 4.5 kjet motor and dropping in a 5.6 bottom end. I've got it all laying there...
