I have a 96 C220. I want to swap my friends engine and interior off his 97 C280. What are the difficulties im going to encounter? My dad owns and runs a Mercedes only shop and i have full access to Mercedes Star Diagnosis system so i dont forsee any major problems. I just want to know what i might have to overcome. O, his car is wrecked BTW. Hit a tree on teh side, so the B pillar is a little messed up.

Putting that much work into a 220. It would be easier to just sell the car and get a 280. And after looking at that one guys 220 on here with the turbo and all that stuff i am soo inspired... God dam i want a turbo... LOL
Well heheh, duh but, werent you trying to find a cheap solution to gain hp? Since you own a repairshop, this is it IMO..! How much is it going to cost goddamit?Originally posted by Markland556

id do it just to learn more about the w202 and because ive done interior swaps before - they seem like a fun job to me!
i just dont wanna do all teh wiring swaps, iv had my share of replaceing them when we got this SL in and rats had chewed it away.... So Im trying to figure out where to start on this $1600 wiring harness... Wow, i never want to do that again..
