M113K swap into a C55
I have read a lot about this but all I see is people saying to sell the c55 and get a e55 or cls55 so please don't respond with "just sell it and get a e55 or cls55" I noticed the guys that did the swap are being really hush hush about it and the ones that do talk about it don't give out to much info unless I'm looking in the wrong parts. So what I know is people say and I have asked that the swap is around 10k to just give the car to a shop and let then do everything but I want to do it myself to learn. I understand that the best way to do it yourself is to buy a wrecked e55 or cls55 and do the swap that way because there are lots of little parts you need. A wrecked car would be anywhere from 3k to 8k and to really get your money back you would have to part it out afterwards so I want to talk about the buying a engine with trans and ECU. I have seen them go from anywhere from 2.5k to 4k and that's around 80k miles I know you would have to upgrade your fuel pump and get all the engine cooling components I would just get the VRP stage 3 cooling kit for all the supercharger cooling and would I be able to use stock c55 radiator for engine? But I think the hardest part would be the wiring how would you go buy that? Because I know almost everything about the swap itself but not the wiring.

Find an engine from an E55. Get the ME and engine harness from a S55 or CL55. Stuff them in your car. Get the ME reflashed to work with your drive authorization system.
Using the E55/CLS55/SL55 electronics will leave the car looking for the SBC equipment your car lacks and results in a permanent ESP light. It can be deprogrammed if you want to go that route.
