I found a 2007 SL550 that is being auctioned off tomorrow...
Yes that is possible and that is how I understand that the second V8 crossfire was done. This is also my plan B if I end up needing to do that. you may have to swap the dash in addition to every single module and ignition switch. You would also have to use the transmission as well. you can program the rear ratio axle and tire sizes relatively easily.
