Great video, Thanks! You helped me a lot. I 've got 380 SEL 1983 with 116.963 . I live in Melton Victoria 3337 and I musician and Merc's lover to. Thanks again I've subscribed.
Good video. I ran a 3 inch single pipe from the catalytic converter through an open muffler with a square chrome tip. She has more power over 3,000 RPMs and sounds like a proper V8!
What did you end up doing for your exhaust? My '85 380 SL only has the catalytic converter and no mufflers and has a good sound at a low price. My channel has a video of it idling, revving up and a little drive
I'm not sure the make of mine, but it has a crossover pipe then resonator where a catalytic would be on a normal us car, then rear muffler and it sounds great. Especially at 6000 rpm. Its a full stainless system. My engine may have some mods, cams maybe since it has a 4 speed conversion done by the PO.
+riffraffjazz what about removing muffler, but adding a test pipe (originally for replacing cat converters on modern vehicles). Or some other sort of resonator, so its not to loud.
