What do you mean the internal components are not swappable?
I doubt there are any short blocks out there. I could probably get a long block out of a junked 320 c-class or something like that.
There are some re-built AMG short blocks... I'm going over to Mike's place on Monday. You can bolt on your intake / exhaust, etc... But bare in mind, I'm not sure the bell housing will fit yet... That's why I'm going over to the shop... There may be differences in the fitment where the tranny adapts to the flywheel, so we're going to take a look... Don't get too excited yet... It may not be plug and play... After all, we're trying to adapt an engine that was designed for an auto trans to a manual trans...
