1999 C43 AMG, 2005 E55 Wagon
Donor engine is from a 1999 E55 with 134k miles. Aside from freshing it up a bit (EGR, water pump, valve cover gaskets) nothing else was done. It's literally a simple plug n play swap except that extra water journal on the back of the engine. The car is an absolute torque monster now. I can't believe they ever made the C43 at all when they could've made this car for the exact same cost. It's absurd they ever even made the 4.3 engine!
