They guy that did my motor swap (and Carl's first) is a senior MB mechanic, and modern-day mb tuner enthusiast, who actually bought his C36 after the 1st owner totalled it ; he rebuilt the car and built the turbo motor (not rebuilt, built anew, as a turbo motor) himself. If you want the right guy to do the job, neither I nor Carl (coolcalrskiC43) could recommend anyone more highly. ...lemme know if you'd like to pursue contacting him to do the entire job.
edit: This guy's in Freeport LI.

Good luck with your project, I hope it works out for you, but if for some reason you don't fix the car, please keep me in mind. I've been looking for C36 engine/harness/computer for a while and would be willing to buy yours.

Thanks and hope this turns out okay, and sorry parts are not for sale at the moment.... I gotta do everything possible to save it.
