SLK 32 SuperCharger on CLK 320
My bro is considering putting a SLK 32 SC on his CLK 320, Just wanted to get your input.
Has anyone here done it? How much in labour and parts would he be looking at?
And since I have spotted a totalled SLK 32 that is being sold in parts what else do I need to extract out of it to have it installed on the CLK?
Thanks

The bottom end on the AMG 3.2 engine is much stronger than your stock 3.2 liter. It is built to handle the additional boost put out by the AMG supercharger. You can make the supercharger work, but there is no telling how long the motor would last before blowing up. You would be better off trying to swap the AMG 3.2 engine into your CLK or buying an aftermarket supercharger built to work with the stock internals of the regular 3.2 v6. I suppose another option would be to put forged crank/pistons, etc in your stock 3.2 to handle the power.
