The 4v heads couldn't fit in the r107 engine bay, so AMG polished/ported the heads and intake, dropped in a performance cam, repiped the entire exhaust, and put in the close-ratio Getrag manual gearbox (built for quick speed, not top end cruising). Good for around 300hp over the stock 240hp.

The SL never, never gets sold. I want my boys to drive it to proms and such - about 12 years away. Thanks for the nice words.
