Title: Picture of Heat Shield between intake and exhaust manifold with 2 clamps needed
Post by: Nate on December 09, 2012, 16:14:57

Can someone please post a picture of the heat shield that goes between the intake and exhaust manifold that is mounted with 2 clamps.  The heat shield is approximately 10" wide and runs just about the length of the engine.  Thanks!

Thanks Joe!  For a '71 280SL Auto is this the correct style of heat shield?

Hello Nate,

I believe this is for a 230SL. If I can find a 280SL version, I will post it also.

Thanks!  They definitely take a beating after 40+ years of extreme heat.

SLS in Hamburg lists these available new for 71 euros, or around $100.
