also earlier someone said that in 1986 through 1994 the engines all shared the same mounts so it was easy to put an engine in but it was hard to match it up to the tranny. i would like to know if all mercedes transmissions shared the same mounts too. TIA

I can't remember exactly, but I believe it is the 500. It could be the 600, but I don't think that came out until 96 or so. The SL's and S classes had the 500 in them.

I think it would be the 560 SEL or the 560 SEC. Years 1985-1991 in Europe. It was 5547cc V8.

Think dls is correct, the 450 SEL 6.9 ended in ?82. 560s are way nicer than 600s. You buy the motor I want the posi.
