It may give you some ideas of what you may be in for.

You should probably ask in the "Performance Paddock" area of this site.
That is one heck of a swap...I figured I'd be posting in the wrong forum.
I used to be on a forum called mbcoupes.com about 10 years ago and I remember the web host dropped a 1991 500SL motor (M119?)in his 126...all he needed to do was cut the fire wall, seems easier.

I was almost positive that people have dropped LS powerplants into this car before, but guess I'm wrong.
I'm still considering it cause I can get my hands on an LS2 with tranny for a pretty good price.
