Biggest problem with dropping an M120 into any car is the electrics/electronics, and crafting the wiring harnesses.

I would probably only attempt to do this by getting a whole car as a doner one that starts and has all wiring harnesses, computers and sensors. It looks to me that the doner car would have to be an SL600 because the sump on the SL moter is up front. The S amd SEC have the sump in the center of the oil pan. I need to find a good rearended and totaled SL600 96 and up. (I also want the 5 speed trany)
