I was adjusting my valves yesterday on the 300SD while daydreaming of performance mods for our beloved OM616 and OM617's.

And remembered that Camless technolgies offer some interesting promises if manufacturers ever manage to pass the 5000-6000 rpm range...

Well Benz oel motors rarely if ever even come close to those rpm levels. What would you folks think of an aftermarket Camless modification for 616 and 617? Nothing electronic just a electromechanic timing wheel and the 8 or 10 solenoids under than valve cover.

Daydreaming
