So it's best to research that in MB EPC before you buy an engine. I also would recommend to use to use the original Crossfire ECU with a 3.7 tune, because that's easier than to setuo a 3.7 ECU to a Crossfire SKREEM and BCU.

Great info Markus, thanks!
This swap is only really interesting to me because it can mate to a 6-speed and avoids the ECU issues and just needs a tune. Otherwise I would be hunting for a V8.
