If you have a choice in the yard buy the 560SL unit. Even if it is $100.00 more. The gussets are currently more than $100.00.
The first picture in the benzworld thread showing a cracking tab is of a 1981 280SL (mine).

Great article / instructions on how to go about it. I am not sure what I will do with the car as of now. I also have a 73 450sl that has minor body work and paint needs, it also has not been upgraded. The 380 motor has the double timing chain set up.
I may make one of the 2. Or sell them both for someone that has more time and energy than me.
