C63 V8 Swap

Might be of interest to some people here; if you have a C43/C63 these people will "retrofit" the 4.0 V8 into it. They're making 63 examples. Azizdrives should be uploading a video shortly about it. I wouldn't be surprised if GAD are also working on a similar engine swap.

Haha I wish Tobia Moers... now that V8 may be coming back, maybe Tobias will also (he at some start up?)? I saw a rumor.. but i dunno

Rumour has it that former AMG boss Tobias Moers walked out of a meeting when it was decided to make the switch.
