| Re: how is a 1983 380sl? The big question w/ 380 motors revolves around the timing chain issue. The early one 81 & 82 I know for sure, have only a single timing chain. I'm told some 83's have twin chain set ups...84 & 85 models have twins! But there is some question as to when the change was made! be sure to check out the timing chain issue! |
