1970 280 Sl exhaust manifold
« on: May 25, 2006, 09:02:14 »
Does anyone know if a late 60's early 70's 280 SE engine exhaust manifold will fit a 280 SL engine (113)? Can I weld it? Is it easy to take off and to fit another one? My manifold is cracked above the downpipe when I drove into a barn to store it. Many thanks.

I believe some of the manifolds do work. I do not have the part numbers right now. You should be able to do a search on the site as I know this topic has been discussed before.

I had a similar problem with my exhaust manifold last year, and we tried to weld it and were not successful.
