Which car had the highest horsepower M117 engine? I understand the "Hammers" had very high Horsepower engines. I'd like to put a high HP engine in an w124 coupe.

Any ideas where I can get a motor?

AMG did 5.4/5.6/6.0L M117 with 16 and and 32V heads. The motors are awfully hard to find though.

What about an M119 swap? That gets you a 32V 5.0 motor that I believe is similar in size to a M117 with DOHC heads because that is effectively what it is.

Also, M120 V12s have been done in W124s... something to think about.
