he is willing to help me drop it in... if i buy the engine.... hmmm this would definitely terminate my extended warrantee...
there is a 3.8 8 cylinder mercedes engine?? i am not sure about that unless its on a much older model, like a 380sel, but i don't know if those were v8's. the most recent ones have been 4.2, 4.3, 5.0 and 5.5, and the new 3.5 v6. i may be wrong though...
