However, I see three x and then three pictures. Are there six total and I am missing three?
I am looking for pictures showing your suspension already installed...If you do not have them, do not worry about it...but, I would love to see it.

I began a little beat with my car at the same time I am working in the studion with my album.

So I began with a nwe bushes to the front

Then when I took a look at all my clients cars I was working with I sw that they look much better then mine and my stuff looks like anal and I decided to rebuild some stuff like new intake manifold.

New watercutted aluminum parts:

Then I will even try a new clutch becaurse I wanna compare this to my Sasch racing 2 plates I used last year.

This 3 plates Quater mater handle 1200nm++ and I belive it will harder to drive becaurse of the smaller diameter of the clutch but we will see...

I can't remember if I asked you before. Have you ever done turbos for a 560SEC? I don't know if there's enough room under the hood, but figured you could do it if anybody could.

No sorry I never done it before.
The only V-engine I ever done turbo is V10 Viper.

But to make turbo on M117 is not impossible I think

You doing a turbo on a V-10 Viper is a scary thought!

Dee8go · #7 09-29-2008, 12:35 PM

Well, I'd be interested to see it if you do make one for an M117.

Is your Throttle butterfly located before the Box on the intake, and is it electronically servo controlled? How big is the intake, and where did u get the parts for the Throttle/servo ect and is it reliable?

I am planing to supercharge my Engine much like what a guy named Robert Kispalko has already done to his C107 M117 engined car due to lack of engine room in the 107s lol. He knows you i think, tho u both seem to have different loves in Turbo vrs Supercharging.

His car is on http://ozbenz.net/viewforum.php?f=13 forums, He is Supercharger and the posts are quite easy to find, he just completed the 450SLC 500 SC, and decided it wasn't big enough so is now doing a 450SLC 560 SC....

Yes of caurse I know him

You can even find his car on our homesite
www.benztrim.net

About the intake manifold:

I use 80mm Wilso racing throttle body
For the servo I machined the aluminum nut i weld under the plenum to conect stock fitting.
Plenum is about 5,5 liters

PUMPISH, I was curious what you thing the differences are on the m104 that makes it weaker. Pistons, rods, block, etc. What is the weak point. I was going to go with a thicker headgasket on my car and go for more timing and more boost in the future. The rods and crank seem the same on the m104 and m103. I even transferred rods and crank out of the cis-e m104 which is a m103 block to a c280 m104 for a 3.2l stroke.
Any way just looking for some info that maybe I am missing.

Turbo E320 · #12 10-13-2008, 11:26 PM

Its the aluminum DOHC head. The iron block to aluminum head config makes headgaskets more vurnerable than normal, even more so since its a I6. The M104's have a history of headgasket problems because the two materials cool at different rates. If you could stud the head and install a thicker gasket(they do make them for the m104) the motor will be a lot stronger.

whipplem104 · #13 10-13-2008, 11:57 PM

The m103 has a aluminum head also. The gaskets are almost identical.
The only differences in the block I can see are that there is a casting relief where the main journals triangulate. Pistons appear to be close.
104 and 103 both leak.
By the way how much boost are you running now Turbo e320?

Turbo E320 · #14 10-15-2008, 08:50 AM

Then it would be the lighter, easier to lift DOHC head.

I am running 9psi now. The tires will burn up to 40 when rolling. The injectors are getting taxxed though. Im at 84% duty cycle in some cases.

whipplem104 · #15 10-15-2008, 10:30 AM

Not sure what you mean. The m103 is a single cam motor.
I just caught that you mentioned thicker head gasket in your previous post.
Have you found this and where?
I am running 9 lbs also at this time and would like to go more but need to lower compression. I have been looking into a copper head gasket or a Cometic steel gasket.
