Very nice.
Great to see a company so commited to these cars....err engines...lol.

Just looked at the price...holly crap!

A fully forged and supercharged engine with upgraded transmission will set you back more than $45K.

I think it is cheaper just to swap a used v12 engine if that is possible.

Very nice! What is the difference between the Weistec forged pistons and the P31 pistons?
Wish I had the cash to do a full engine build.

The V12 would add even more weight to the already porky pig.

Money aside... Strip down the C63 to nothing but a drivers racing seat. Lighten up everywhere possible and throw everything Weistec has at it and you are looking at a mid 9 sec car.

Lovely stuff....does anyone know of an owner with such an engine, or something approaching it, that can give us some drive opinions?
Cheers, Pickles.

That will be great.
We don't see much of this stuff in Aus.
The Weistec products appear to be of a very high quality , so some pics, but also details of what you've fitted, & the difference they have made to the car, would be very interesting.
Thanks, Pickles.
