5.0L or 3.6L AMG engine in 300CE?
 
Has anyone done a conversion like this or heard of it being done? Please reply if you have any info,or even a 5.0L or 3.6L into any w124. Thanks.

Are you referring to an M117 5.0L? Because the 500E was a 5.0L M119 in a 124 from the factory.

Yes the 500E, was a collaboration by Mercedes and Porsche which stuffed a 5.0 motor into a W124 sedan for the ultimate stealth street fighter. Only the slightly flared fenders and the 500E trunk badge gave away the came but the car could be debadged for greater stealth. This was a stunning ride.

Satish Tummala (STUMMALA) on this board, I heard was completing a 5.0 transplant into a 300CE coupe, a one off project that may be finished by now. Check out his posts here, or his website www.mbcoupes.com for further information on that project. He really knows what he is doing and a great guy to boot, I had the pleasure to meet him...
