[W126 Coupe] 380sec Exhaust system uprgrade

[Mister McGoo]

I have a pair of them but unfortunately they are still bolted to my Euro 380SE.  The downpipes I had looked at a couple of years ago were from a exhaust system manufacturer... I'd have to dig to find out the source again. You need to find someone with a 380 Euro parts car. (You won't likely find a 420 Euro anywhere)  It can be any model, SE, SEC, or SEL., including '81 (no SEC but the SLC Euro had a 380 instead of the 450)  In fact, the '81 380 M116 engine is even more unique because it still had manual adjustments; idle, timing......
 
If you find a pair of manifolds, take them to your friendly exhaust/muffler shop and show them what you want to do.  Hell, they may be able to make the pipes up while you're talking about them!

PS to anyone out there:  The 500 engine and the 560 are both M117 engines, right?  Does anyone know if the exhaust manifolds are interchangeable?

Where do I find the m116 manifolds and the down pipes? 
 
thanks
