Here is info regarding the specific 4-speed manual shift transmission which came with my 1980 350SL. First, my Euro 350SL is a 107.043, whereas all of the 107s for the US market are 107.044s. My engine is a 116.984, and my manual tranny is a 716.100 (G 76/27 A). The factory differential for my car is a very high 3.46 to 1 (whereas the US 450SLs are 3.06 to 1). Hope this may benefit those who wish to know.
