What an amazing post Mr. Tong! Well done! This really opens up a lot of options for modders!
A few questions:
1. By "only swap to my car" did you mean you added the K to the M113 or that you sold your supercharged C55 after completing the build?
2. Excluding labor, I assume a lot of the parts are junkyard cheap. But, let's say you can't go to junkyards and had to get everything off of ebay. What would be the total cost in the parts list including all the piping and stuff?
3. After doing this incredible upgrade, would you recommend others do it? Or should one just get a used C63? Obviously the C63 will be more expensive but your labor is going to be thousands. Especially for doing the ECU, body control modules, reprogramming of the keys, etc.
4. Would it be cheaper to get a used M113K and swap the engine?
