Hey there! I'm the buddy with the "new" 606!
Here's the ad I replied to:
96 to 99 mercedes benz e300 engine and transmission
The auto trans is still for sale. Supposedly 160-170k miles.
I have no affiliation with the seller!
Also, my build will be anything but "lame"!
Om606 + Getrag 265/6 + Holset he351ve = awesome in ANY vehicle!
I welcome your comments or suggestions.
