Hello BenzWorld, this is my first post!! Coming to seek advice, or maybe a reality check. I'll save you the circumstances of the story and get straight to my predicament. My W204 2013 c250 had crapped out on me and cylinder number one decided to leave itself on the highway in its wake there is...

So I have a 1987 190E 2.6 and as you all know it's not exactly a speed demon. I'm a college student so money isn't readily available, but I want to save up to do an m104 swap. I'd like to know a rough ballpark of how much it might cost (going to buy new trans as well). Also what kind of parts...

Hey guys, first post here. Hope everyone is doing well! So my partners 190e 1.8 (180e over here in Australia) currently has major blow by. With 270,000km’s on it and a very neglectful life, the engine no doubt needs an entire rebuild. We’ve sourced a 2L interstate with 180k on it and are going...

I’ve got a 560sel that’s in really nice condition both inside and out. I’m a huge fan of the car and I’d love to keep it but the engine is about to go. It’s got a serious knock that’s not getting better any time soon so I need to start planning my next move. Im not a purist so I’ll take any...

I'm curious if anyone has any information on swapping engines with something more modern that delivers stronger and smoother power. I don't want to dump an LS or any other engines that can deliver tons of horsepower, but I'm looking for something that is smoother and more reliable. I was...

Hi everyone i hope you are having a good day. I recently picked up my C220 (W202) a few weeks ago and I love it to bits but i feel it lacks a bit of power for my taste. I wish to make around 200-250 hp and maybe squeezing to 300 hp at a later date. This is where my little dilemma begins, I know...

Looking for an OM60x engine to throw into my mitsubishi Delica/L300. I like my engines to have good low end torque and fuel consumption. The main reason for choosing OM60x engines is their reliability. Looking for an engine with more than 100HP

Hey All, One of those posts where I should start with "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE"! lol. I have had a 79 240D for 5 years now. To make this thing an everyday driver, I am going full speed at updating it. My wife said we could sell our newish A6 if I made this a daily driver, great incentive to get...

Hello all, I want to engine swap my 2021 Mazda CX-5 2.5L SkyActiv (2.5L, 187hp, 186lb-ft) engine - in the not so distant future after the warranty expires - for a Mercedes S63 AMG M177 (4.0L, 603hp, 664lb-ft) engine. The purpose is to have as much reliable and fuel-friendly power under the...

I have a 1992-year Mercedez Benz 200 E with M102 motor, I want to replace it with M111 2.2L. Is that possible? And what else will be changed if it is possible?

Hey guys, I just got a 2005 ml 350. Trying to swap engine to a v8 Toyota 3uz fe engine. Toyota/lexus engines are more reliable and economical to maintain, yet they give out the HP. Any advice will be highly appreciated. Thanks

Is it feasible to install a complete frame and drive train in a 75 450 SL. Like shops do with old unibody Novas. Basically abandoning the unibody frame and placing the 450 SL on a frame aka a new chasis. The donor has beautiful interior and paint but not worth restoring the power train to...

When changing out the engine with a similar engine, is it neccessary to have to reprogram the engine and transmission to work together? trying to avoid a problem

I have a 2002 CL500 and I've been wanting to rebuild and turn this car into something new. My main question is if went from the measly 302 hp up to nearly 500hp, would my transmission need replaced? could the regular CL500 (5L V8) tranny handle the power of a supercharged 5.5L V8? or would that...
