    Brakes Upgrades??

    No I’m definitely not the type of nutter that would drill holes in a brake surface. Yes new rotors but even the ones manufactured with holes aren’t that great. I prefer the ATE slotted design, but they’re not easy to find anymore.

    Brakes Upgrades??

    Toying with some W140 front brakes. It appears the rotors are around 320x30mm which are slightly bigger than S2 W126. Crossing fingers they might fit without major mods on standard S2 W126 hubs/rotors.

    Some fancy 116 wheels

    Reviving an old thread. I think they look very good. Hopefully the back ones fit... 18” for Moby Dick eventually after refinishing. I’m toying with some 18” w129 AMG wheels too, but I think they’re cast since they’re very heavy.

    Die Rote Sau - the red pig

    That is interesting!! Still clearly a last minute decision compared to the W116 chassis that was designed to accept the M100 from inception.

    Mercedes V8 Inlet Manifolds

    Finally I can send my prototype engine off to the fabricator next week since I'd been waiting for them to finish a custom exhaust on of all things a rare Lamborgini 4x4! Pix to follow when I plug all the openings and give it a wash before loading it on the trailer. It's pedal to the metal now...

    Die Rote Sau - the red pig

    A section from my latest article in the MBCV ATB Magazine: Research can often snowball into something far beyond the initial intent, so it’s always wise to retain a focal point to which you can return. And so it is with the history of motor racing, Mercedes and AMG. My research for the last...
