The 2.8L 24v head has a bare port flow about what a well ported 12v one does. However, at low and moderate lifts, the 24v will kill it, which is what really matters.
Pros: good at low lifts
Cons: bare port flow
with the merc don't settle for low spec and make sure cylinder head extended warranty is active
Cons: potential reliability issues

Mercedes
