Weight loss


It seems that increasing power on the sl’s six cylinders is quite difficult. It was not an engine that attracted the attention of the performance parts manufacturers, probably because of the type of car it’s in as much as anything. Apart from a better air cleaner, fitting an electric fan and perhaps electronic ignition the best course of action is to blueprint the engine to make sure all the horses are present. This leaves one course of action to improve on the cars relatively lacklustre acceleration. I hope this explains my obsession with weight loss which will become apparent throughout the posts.
