The W124 must be different. In what respect is it slightly easier to fit? Do you know if I could fit it in a W113?

The M119 is slightly easier to fit as it was a factory engine in the 400E, E420, 500E, E500 and E60 W124.
The M117 SOHC and DOHC were only aftermarket AMG installs in the 124.
I think Mechatronik installs the 3.2 V6 in the W113 with success.
