'85 cam on my '79 300SD head?
In the midst of installing the > $600 worth of stuff I bought off the site :-) and am curious about your take on cam. The '79 300SD had the lowest HP of the 617 turbo run and 85's the highest. Folks on some of the chat boards are suggesting I put an 85 cam and cam tower on the head once I get it back from the shop. Thoughts? that and know where a guy might get a good '85 cam/towers?
Thanks!

1979 300SD suddenly lost power ... replaced alternator regulator ... help
1979 300SD suddenly lost power this afternoon ... the battery will not hold a charge.
The Internal Alternator Voltage Regulator was replaced.
Afterwards, for a few minutes, there was in intermittent "screeching sound" which has not reoccurred.
The old regulator, a Bosch unit that was made in Brazil look tired to say the least. Were the original regulators etc all made in Brazil?
When turning the ignition key, the battery warning light stays on in the dash cluster ... but none of the other lights work.
