Bought this beauty early 2005 and has been my daily driver for several years.
[Image: 300sd-2.jpg]

I drove the car as original the first year, in 2006 i decided it was time to do some upgrades and installed intercooler and did some pump modificaton, also the turbo was serviced and go different compressor wheel.

[Image: img_3243.jpg]

After that i installed nice AMG rims and xenon headlights:

[Image: img_3943.jpg]
[Image: kirkas2.jpg]

At the same time i noticed that using several manual gauges was painful and i didn't want to destroy the dash so i installed digital gauge with everything in same unit:
[Image: img_3625.jpg]


2006 winter i drove lot, my daily trip was over 300km so i noticed i need some entertainment to the car. So i started new project: multi core multimedia system
[Image: img_3973.jpg]
[Image: img_3985.jpg]
[Image: img_3986.jpg]

[Image: img_4012.jpg]
[Image: img_4037.jpg]

After the long winter i noticed that the intercooler project was i success, my fuel mileage got much better and the engine was cooler, also there was more torque.
So much more that the transmission started to slip jan-feb 2007.
After that i drove lighter and tried to maximize the transmission pressure and that helped for few months. But in April i went to an transmission specialist who serviced my tran. and upgraded it to handled over 500Nm of torque for future upgrades.

New transmission was very good and it shifted like anything before Big Grin
But in autumn 2007 the car failed smog test and i decided it was time to buy another daily driver.
Oldtimer's status got changed from all year around car to summer car and the engine was going to be serviced from bottom to top

will continue
Dec 2007 in my garage:

Head off, cylinders looked good from distance, but needed service:
[Image: jenkki13.jpg]
[Image: jenkki14.jpg]

The head itself was in good shape:
[Image: jenkki15.jpg]
Removing bottom layer:

Turbo oil pump:
[Image: jenkki17.jpg]

This is why EGR is evil Angry
[Image: jenkki20.jpg]
[Image: jenkki21.jpg]

Bottom end looked good no major problems:
[Image: jenkki-uusi4.jpg]
[Image: jenkki-uusi2.jpg]

Also the crankshaft were okay:
[Image: jenkki-uusi3.jpg]

Pistons also okay, but few of the rings were damaged pretty badly
Here you can see marks from the rings:
[Image: jenkki-uusi6.jpg]
[Image: jenkki-uusi7.jpg]
The head was ultrasound cleaned and mildy ported.
After this it got two layer paint coating:
[Image: jenkki-uusi1.jpg]

Also the block was ultrasound cleaned and got new paint:

New parts from good dealer from US:
[Image: jenkki-uusi22.jpg]

Some new oversize pistons:
[Image: jenkki-uusi12.jpg]
[Image: jenkki-uusi21.jpg]
I also decided to change all gears in the engine.
Then engine and chassis had over 600 000km prior service:
[Image: jenkki-uusi14.jpg]
[Image: jenkki-uusi16.jpg]

Block straight from machining and ready for build up:
[Image: jenkki-uusi15.jpg]
[Image: jenkki-uusi17.jpg]

Difference between red block volvo rods and om617 rods:
[Image: jenkki-uusi20.jpg]

Also decided to renwe all the front suspensions parts, they were pretty worn out:
[Image: p1020304.jpg]
[Image: p1020302.jpg]

Powder coating makes big difference to old parts:
[Image: p1020320.jpg]
Head ready build and installed on the block
[Image: p1020292.jpg]

Injectors with new silencio nozzles:
img]http://www.toimii.fi/~oh1jty/auto/300sd/p1020293.jpg[/img]

Engine looks much better:
[Image: p1020312.jpg]

Here it goes back in:
[Image: p1020316.jpg]

It took some while to come to this phase, i had problems to find OM617A parts, especially the pistons were a big headache.
At the mean time i had the chassis fixed from some rust problems in the wheel arches. I removed those annoying chrome thingies from arches and found some nice rust:
[Image: jenkki18.jpg]

Also the injector pump was changed from MW to OM602 M pump, pump was serviced and upgraded by PP-Diesel in Finland.
It has lraged 7mm elements, custom boost controlled "ALDA" and is tuned for high horse powers.

It took whole 2008 to get the engine serviced and back to the car.

So now to the good stuff, bigger turbo Big Grin
Turbo is a master power 322 from Hevosvoima.com

Exhaust manifold done by KKDMotorsport
Turbo and manifold installed, looks much better than the original mini turbo Smile
[Image: p1020337.jpg]
[Image: p1020329.jpg]

Around April 2009 it was time for first start.
Everything worked okay and the engine started nicely.
[Image: p1020342.jpg]
Video at youtube

I had some other projects whole summer and the 300SD was standing in garage.
But around December 2009 I decided it was time to re-start the project.
Everything else was ready, only intake manifold was missing, so it was time to start build and custom intake. I had in mind to use original turbo intake but noticed quite quickly that it was bad idea Dodgy

So i started from scratch:
[Image: p1030824.jpg]
[Image: p1030826.jpg]

New intake fits nicely with new exhaust manifold:
[Image: imusarja-final.jpg]
[Image: hukkis1-m.jpg]

As the turbo was without wastegate I installed and external wastgate:
[Image: hukkis3-m.jpg]
Here are the latest shots from last weekend, made some thermal wrapping around manifold and few finishing touches:
[Image: sarja1-m.jpg]
[Image: sarja2-m.jpg]

Engine works nicely with boost, needs few things before going to dyno.
Also going to install my latest version of supermeter:

Just for getting better pressure control in different situations.

Thats a really, really nice execution! Can't wait to see this thing complete! Beautiful job!

Pretty impressive that the engine still had nice cross hatching in each cylinder after 600,000 km.

Is there a reason you are just putting a filter on your CCV output? or are you intending to run that into the intake or add an oil seperator? My concern would be that after all that spectacular restoration work, it would be a shame to vent oil vapor onto all those nice new clean parts.

(01-04-2010, 04:14 PM)ForcedInduction Why would you need a wastegate with such a humongous turbine?

Actually that's a .70 T3 divided housing, and not that humongous. This one should be running near 300hp in the future with the same turbo so the housing isn't too big. Aaand it made a nice 0,5bar boost when revved without load.

Even the small stock T3 can barely make 7psi revving the piss out of the engine, a T4-clone with a large non-wastegated turbine (even a T3) I know for fact it isn't happening. The laws of physics still apply, even in Finland.

It does actually, 4 valves makes a very big difference. Thats why the nonturbo OM606 makes as much power as the turbo 617.

Boost is created by restriction and better flowing engine gives greater potential with lower boost. Turbo isn't driven only by air, but combustion gases, and if the engine receives too much fuel, it tends to burn in the exh.header/manifold creating more boost by just increasing the rotation speed of the s/wheel. More boost gives more air and fuel pump gives more fuel by using the boost as reference, resulting even more boost. If you are having trouble having boost by just pumping the pedal, the engine may be running too lean to give the turbo enough kick or your turbo doesn't/didn't spin freely .

You may or may not believe the 0,5bar by pumping with the JTY's 617, I've seen the gauge and KNOW it happened. There is nothing to it.

There have been some doubts about the turbo being too large and not capable to boost 0.5bar without load. As antonmies said it's true and there's even an quick video on youtube.
And as last comment to this matter, who said the head is stock, there's no pictures of the head for good reason Tongue

Okay back to the track.
There have been some updates to my 300SD.
Went for few test drives and noticed that this thing is a killer in this weather, need to wait for spring. There was no traction at all and the suspension was not handling the added power anymore. So i decided that i need tougher springs.

I ordered a suspension set from Brabus:

Also there is now a new version of supermeter420-diesel with few new features specially for my setup:

I tought that it would be nice to keep car as original as possible with minor mods and i like US headlights Blush
When it was imported to Finland they changed the lamps to Hellas H4 E-marked, that's it. It was easy to import these old cars compared to new Mustangs where you need to changed all lights, all glass surfaces, blinkers and so on.

Now the snow is gone in Finland and all roads are dry finally Exclamation
I have made few runs in different situations, master power turbo seems very capable Smile

Here's video very adjusting the injection pump, first time out this spring:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=wBXEhcx0ErE
Made few runs yesterday and found out that the car is suffering from fuel starvation on higher pressure, need to consult with the pump guru.
It seems that RPM limiter is catching too low and limitin the fuel.

Here's video where you can see how it goes way too lean:

Increasing power usually increases stress on the engine. Or do you have some other info?
High EGTs are not a symptom of too rich condition but combined with too little advance causes the air-fuel mixture to burn partially in the exhaust manifold dramatically increasing EGTs and overall heat load on the engine (quite similar as running with late ignition advance on a gasoline engine).

I don't think that a 12:1 would make that dense smoke.

Of course in normal driving conditions the engine should run as lean as it goes, but what comes to making power, you'll have to feed her properly.

Actually it has everything to do with power. If you're smoking you're pumping fuel (and power) out the exhaust, simple as that.

Put the engine on a dyno with the same injected fuel quantity and a 13:1 and 19:1 AFR and I'd bet good money the 19:1 makes more power while running cool enough to make that power for longer.

Don't see a wideband AFR meter in your car spec list, so how could you tell?

Basically you are on the right trail, but only if you don't give it more injection advance.

I guess that the grey mist mentioned by jeemu appears roughly at 13:1

Diesels don't need such equipment, especially since soot will foul it and skew the readings over time.

Actually they do these days. If you go and see a newer more emission controlled diesel engine, you will see a wideband sensor in the exhaust manifold and sometimes also after the cat converter.
Too rich condition will skew the readings in time, higher EGTs also. Same is with the gasoline engines. Gasoline guys said only 5 years ago that who needs a wide band AFR gauge as narrow band does the trick. And 15 years before that, who needs a lambda meter, you can read the condition from the spark plug color. I think that too many diesel guy lives in that 20 years ago situation: "Just see the rear view mirror" similar to "light brown color is nice"...
I've worked with jeemu a lot during last few years (mostly related to turbocharger issues as I'm a Master Power distributor back here) and learned a whole bunch of info on diesels. And more I've learned, the more I think that they are pretty much like gasoline engines. The symptoms and the way they behave with late or early advance are quite similar as with messing around with ignition advance. The methods differ mainly because of mechanical fuel pump and mechanical everything, but the modern engines with ECMs are quite "the same thing".

Jeemu can answer more specific with the advance questions and the AFR readings I threw in are rough estimates. But as for the dark black smoke, I would say that comes in a region of 10:1. But as now we have the equipment, we are able to share hard data, not just some rear view mirror crap.

Diesels don't need such equipment, especially since soot will foul it and skew the readings over time.

Actually they do these days. If you go and see a newer more emission controlled diesel engine, you will see a wideband sensor in the exhaust manifold and sometimes also after the cat converter.
Too rich condition will skew the readings in time, higher EGTs also. Same is with the gasoline engines. Gasoline guys said only 5 years ago that who needs a wide band AFR gauge as narrow band does the trick. And 15 years before that, who needs a lambda meter, you can read the condition from the spark plug color. I think that too many diesel guy lives in that 20 years ago situation: "Just see the rear view mirror" similar to "light brown color is nice"...
I've worked with jeemu a lot during last few years (mostly related to turbocharger issues as I'm a Master Power distributor back here) and learned a whole bunch of info on diesels. And more I've learned, the more I think that they are pretty much like gasoline engines. The symptoms and the way they behave with late or early advance are quite similar as with messing around with ignition advance. The methods differ mainly because of mechanical fuel pump and mechanical everything, but the modern engines with ECMs are quite "the same thing".
