Actually the car is still sitting in the same state :P
But I haven't changed my mind about the swap - none of the engines that I liked for this car would be able to fit without cutting the engine...

Hi Frank,
I got a little sidetracked thinking about Diamler-Chrysler v6s again when I heard of the 6-speed transmission and started thinking of the Chrysler Crossfire (M112 v6). Do you happen to...

Oh, and I thought the w114 had the same diff (maybe different ratios, depending on model) as the w116, w123, early w126. If they could handle the power and torque of a 5.0 M117, I think the diff...
