I'm only here to see how the retitleing goes. I'll have a a 603 in a LWB 140 within minutes of you saying you got the SL retitled... K&N or not.

Here is the photo of the tail cone from the 124 (not sure what 722..... but I think the '82 and later SD's and all 124's should have what you need).

That's what I'm thinking. I'm planning on a junkyard run tomorrow to at least check out the situation. Thanks for the picture... it's an important datapoint.

As the major fitment issues seem to be getting resolved, I've started to begin familiarizing myself with the various systems that will need hooking up. One of the more complex, I'm finding, is the vacuum system. Keep in mind that I need to maintain the complexity at least until I get the vehicle re-titled, so removing the EGR and stuff like that has to wait.
Can someone point me to where I might find #80, the Control Unit? And if possible a picture and maybe even a wiring diagram? I've been able to find most of the other components and have begun mentally thinking about how to mount and hook up and route the various lines and wires.

#80 resides behind the kick panel on the pass side, to the right of their feet.
The 84 and 85 300D and 300SD have this. Charlie

Yup, found it right where you said. That's a big box - I was hoping for something more the size of a pack of cigarettes. I wonder if there's going to be room behind the 380's kick panel to mount....

Doesn't the 107 have room somewhere for a D-Jet ECU from the early days? Those things are far from small.

It appears that the 380SL has the KE-Jetronic system and there is a controller allegedly under the floorboards on the passenger side somewhere. I'll have to start tearing into it and see what I can find.

Iam thinking if you are using the 300D 85 engine, and you install the "control unit #80", then the tach will work. you also have to use the pick up sensor that picks up the signal from the flywheel.
Maybe that won`t work with the SL gauges, and the 123 tach probably won`t fit into the cluster anyway. just a thought. Charlie

In the wiring diagram (a) pin 25 goes to the tach. For a bit, it looked like I could just grab a section of the wiring harness with all the sensors of the ECU and pull it through intact, but alas, no such luck. So the plan now is to cut the ECU plug and manually splice in the wiring for the respective components. There are really only 4 (plus the overvoltage relay and the trimming plug, and they are right next to the ECU and can probably be left intact) And two of those are one wire only. The trick is going to be to find an equivalent place to tap in for power analogous to circuits 15 and 30 on the 300D.

I believe 84 was the first year the tach received its pickup signal from the flywheel at the trans and not the front of the engine as the previous years are. You may already know that and I can't recall from the 11 pages which tranny you are using.

Got the exhaust system done today.
I needed to make a segment that would transition from the down tube in the front to the back section of the stock dual tube exhaust in the SL. I used two flare fittings and welded in a bend I got off a down tube section from a 300SD. (The right side looks like I welded in an extra 1/2 inch segment, but I actually used a short segment of 2.5" tube to form a sleeve and welded both ends of the sleeve) I still need to fab up the front hangar that attaches to the transmission, but I'll need to get some material.
