Engine Swap W203 Coupe / C32 AMG
Has anyone attempted something like this, and if so how difficult is it (i have the 6spd manual trans now)? I have approx 180K miles on my car now and might consider something like this if its feasible. any input appreciated

I looked into doing it to my coupe as well. It doesn't seem to difficult if you got the C320 coupe, because the engine is theoretically plug-and-play. You would just need to upgrade your exhaust and exhaust manifold, and you might need to convert your trans to the automatic. Apparently the S/C M112 doesn't take too kindly to manual.
Because you have the 4CYL, it will be much more difficult to implant the engine. It WILL fit in the engine bay, for sure, you just might need to strip almost everything.
