w204 c300
engine swap

hello every one
i have been following offline reading all the wonderful comments from experts members.
I own a 2012 c300 4matic and will like to do an engine swap. am thinking of installing a m271 compressor engine in my c300.
please what do i need to do to get it don. the engine is cheaper to buy each time it fails than to repair an m272 down here. am not concerned about speed.
their are w204 c200 available in the market but i dont like the interior.
thanks for your help

OK, please provide a little more info, like where "down here" is.

Modern cars are not easy to upgrade because it's not just a mechanical problem. There are also electronics and electrical issues. Plus, Mercedes likes to do stuff like electronically link major components together, such as a transmission and engine.

The bigger question is why does your engine keep failing.
