M100 ENGINE 6.9 CROSS-SECTION PICS PART 1


Here is a collection of cross section pics from the 6.9 engine and hope that would be useful to members when looking at an item and see its components.
These cut away pictures of a 6.9 engine and transmission were posted from the Classic Center on the 116.org site.

Although they are from a 6.9 engine the V8 350 450 500 560 share many of its components.

I haven't seen that engine out on the floor in the Classic Center in a couple years. The last time I was in there was just a couple months ago.

I think Tom Hanson was the one telling me that before the Classic Center opened, Mercedes was considering tossing the engine as it was originally created for training purposes but had long out-lived its usefulness...
