Quick question - how much torque does my car have?

Yes, I've searched.

I have heard that my car has 88 hp, 77hp, 80 hp - but on my car, there is a sticker above the right headlight that all Mercedes have - it claims my car makes 83 hp. I could be wrong, the sticker could be misprinted, or lettering could have fallen off. Either way - is it 83 or 88?

Lastly - how much torque does my car have in lb/ft?

I have a 1981 300D NON turbo, completely stock.

Thumbs up

617 turbo was 120hp/170tq so... I'd guess around 110tq for your N/A.

616 had 62 and 67hp. Torque was around 90

120 mkg. I don't know what that is in ft lb. about the same i think. seems like the 616 has 88 ft lb so divide by four and add that to 88 and you get 120 ft lb.
