The changes in US and euro 113 fuel injected engines were very minor compared to other engines manufactured after 1975 in the US.
The carbureted Mercedes engines of these years did not burn as clean as the injected engines and starting in 1969, were loaded down with air pumps and many other emission items.
The fuel injected 113 engines were more efficient and powerful and ran a little cleaner than the Mercedes carbureted cars during those years and were spared some of the other emission add-ons.

 New engine may migrate to U.S.
"The new engine will eventually go to the U.S., but it is too soon to say when," noted VTC brand manager Magnus Koeck during the launch of the FH16 in Northern Sweden last week.
The new D16C engine has been in development since the late 1990s and has two ratings: 550 hp producing approximately 1850 lbs-ft of torque and 610 hp cranking out about 1950 lbs-ft of torque.
However, the D16C does not meet either the 2002 or 2004 emission regulations in the U.S. Yet by 2005, it must be adapted to meet strict European emission levels than will surpass what U.S. engine makers must meet in 2007, so the engine could be ready for the U.SD.

CRAWFORD, Texas - President Bush said U.S. job growth was “running strong” as he worked to put a spotlight on the economy in a presidential election campaign that lately has been dominated by Iraq.
In his weekly radio address, Bush listed statistics from several of the most hotly contested states in the Nov. 2 election to push his case that the economy is on the upswing.

 World Tribune.com: U.S. engine needed for global recovery
UNITED NATIONS — While viewing the U.S. as the “locomotive of global economic growth,” and a leader in the worldwide economic recovery, a current UN report warns there are still many uncertainties and risks to sidetrack an economic rebound this year.
Ironically, as the Wall Street Journal adds, while the U.S. launching a economic stimulus package, Europe’s largest economy is heading the other way in the other direction,: Raising taxes and cutting spending to in order to lower deficits…The German economy, traditionally the economic engine of Europe, is in trouble.”
Let’s not forget that the “U.S. government debt level is much lower than that of Germany and other European countries, so it can afford a higher deficit at the moment,” according to Eric Chaney, an Euro-zone economist with Morgan Stanley.
