It may be a stupid question but I found a 2005 that’s said to be perfect other than the engine being blown and I wanted to put my 2003 engine into it. Any input would help thank you.

Iirc, it should be a plug and play, direct replacement.
However, if you don't change your timing chain, or haven't had it replaced, save yourself Massive amounts of time, and send the money you would have spent, and wasted, directly to me!!!

Good Luck!

I was literally just thinking the same thing because I have a beautiful C230K that needs a bunch of little odd stuff to be finished. I thought about purchasing a parts car to do such things to my C230K to get it back to Daily Driver standards

exactly what I plan on doing. The car does need a bunch of little stuff done to it so that why I’m going to change the motor over if I end up getting it. I’m going to stick with this car until I can upgrade to a cls550 or c63
