5.0 to a 5.4???
So I have a chance to get a 5.0L out of a w211 for really cheap and my friend tells me it can be made into a 5.4 by getting a different crank shaft or w\e.
Is this true and would I need to replace anything else on the motor to make as much power as the standard 5.4L n\a makes??
Im aware this would require a lot of labor but he can do it for me at a fraction of the cost...
Btw does anyone have dyno numbers for a w211 E500 stock?

If the 55 crank fits a 500 block (the 55 and 500 blocks show different part numbers), the cams, injectors, and throttle body are all different. The heads have the same part number, but the ports may be massaged on the AMG heads. Lastly, the AMG engines have more compression.
