Cam Swap Advice Needed - M116 380SL

[rs899]

I'm usually on the diesel forum, but I have an gasser engine related question that needs the attention of the gearheads over here.

We have an '85 380SL with about 160k miles on it that is wearing its cams. It didn't help any that yours truly let them pit while changing the guides and chain about a year ago.

I have collected a number of replacement junkyard cams (and shims , rockers and compensators as well)

1. Replacement 380 cams (marked 62/63)
2. 420 cams (08/09)
3. 560 cams (26/27)

The prettiest of the lot by far are the 560 cams. The others are OK and should work, considering the age of the car and my efforts to keep it running using the correct oil.

Anyway, which cams would you guys choose? Will all of them work (even the 560s?)

This is SWMBOs grocery getter. We are not interested in any performance gains, just want to use the "best" cams understanding that there will be compromises and tradeoffs. I would not particularly care to have to start using premium fuel. We don't have hills here, nor is this car spending any time on highway on-ramps.

Your thoughts?
