The replacement of the head gasket went well. I have new valve guides, valve seals, valve lifters, timing chain, front crankshaft sealing and some other parts as well. The car ran fine again and I have torn it apart for the planned mods a little after the head gasket was replaced.

I just took a look at your pictures again and see that you still have the old style lower door and rear fender panel...
Do you have a digital camera and if you have one, can you send me some pictures of your Xenon lights (the ballast units) and a picture of how the space between the chassis and front bumper is filled (the newer R129 SLs have thicker front chassis beams).
Do you have the auto leveling system on your Xenon lights as well? I need to remove the rear axle to get the sensors in place...

greetingz,
