hey guys,

I saw this C43 drivetrain (engine + transmission) on ebay for $5500 and that got me thinking.....how hard is it to put that C43 engine onto a C220?

For starters the ECU has to be changed, wiring harness replaced, and....?

is the driveshaft identical on the C220 and C43 AMG? Is the 4 speed gear lever on the C220 capable of controlling the 5 speed transmission from C43? (like so I end up with D, 4 and 3 selection?)

Will the ECU flick into safety get you home mode if the ESP / ASR are non existent?

Finally, anyone makes mechanical LSD for W202 rear ends?
