Short, Fun W116 Movie:
Just for fun, I put together a collection of video clips showcasing my 300SD's acceleration from 0 to 60, from 60 to 105 and part-throttle acceleration from 40 to 70 mph.
The goal here is to demonstrate how an internally stock 617.950, with '05' camshaft and no alterations to the injektor pump (other than the ALDA being backed all the way out), can perform with a T-3 turbocharger and stock exhaust.
While there are certainly OM 617's that produce more power than I do, this car delivers remarkable performance in consideration of its basically stock condition, and nets almost 30 MPG on the highway.
I hope all of you enjoy this video tutorial. It was actually quite fun to produce...Robert
