I think the top speed on the '87 300TD should be higher than 123, I can hit 125 (130 down a long steep hill) in my '91 300D 2.5Turbo with the stock 2.65 diff and 4600rpm limit. I thought the '87 124s had a 5000 or 5100rpm limit with the same 2.65 rear end, that should make them good for a true 130+.
Top speed for a 300TD 124.193 is NOT 202 km/h but 195 km/hr (121 mph) and all the same arguments apply.
Your '91 300D 2.5 is many hundreds of pounds lighter! Marshall -- Marshall Booth Ph.D. Ass't Prof. (ret.) Univ of Pittsburgh School of Medicine Department of Pharmacology 1300 BST Pittsburgh PA 15261 USA [EMAIL PROTECTED]
