The 560 uses separate belts. Don't forget this engine was basically a design 
from the early 70's. The 119 uses serp.

The M119 uses the serpentine belt.  As for dimensions I couldn’t say.  I can’t 
imagine there’s much of a difference size-wise between the three.  If there are 
dimensions I can measure for you let me know.

[MBZ] Vergasser engines

2017-01-25 Thread Curley McLain via Mercedes


does anyone know the dimensions for the various vergasser v8s?  I am 
wondering about motor mounts, transmission mating etc for M117 or M119 
vs M116.   I know a M117 will fit inthe space, but it is terribly 
crowded, so I have been looking for a good M116.  What are the physical 
differences between M119 4.2 and a M116 4.2?


In the FL 420SEL disaster, I found out that even in 1990, they were 
still using 5 belts on the vergasser in place of the one serp belt as on 
the OM603.  That is a minus.  Did the M117 560 use a whole boatload of 
belts or a serp belt?


I'd guess the M119 uses the serp belt.  Is this true?
