TurboCharging an SL

I read an article about one
Some years ago I read an article about someone in Australia who turbo-charged his 350SL. I remember he had problems due to the high compression (9.5:1) of the Aus delivered 3.5 litre. The lower compression 4.5 in the 450SL would probably be a better candidate for this.

Last year, I fixed all the rust on it and had it pained while it was torn apart putting in a new bulkhead. This fall, I noticed a small oil leak under pressure which turned out to be...- 0

Visor Clips
R/C107 SL/SLC ClassI didn't want to pay 50 EUR for a set of two (at least that was the best price I found at the time) so I 3D printed them instead. I used grey resin which I spray painted black and then clear coated. Getting the friction fit right meant creating lots of parts of slightly different sizes until I...- 5
