Judging by the remaining space in the engine bay, an E55 might fit. I would have spent a lot more for the E55 swap though. Remember I also upgraded the whole driveline.

I was at theSpeedSyndicate awhile back, and we came across a full e55 swap for 8Gs...did all the dimensions and they determined the the e55 motor is slighting taller than the 320/500 motors...so you would have to modify your bonnet or tilt ur hood like those civics....

That's very good to know, thanks. Kind of happy now that I didn't go that route.

dynomite05 can i ask you a couple of questions? I'm going to pick up my clk 320 tomorrow and I can't wait to start modding it. I really like the way your car turned out so...

1)For your quad exhaust set up did you have to cut out the clk320 wheel well and weld the amg one?
2) That carbon fiber splitter on the back, can it go on a stock bumper?
3) Did you use the oem amg exhaust tips? The only ones i was able to find were http://cgi.ebay.ca/BENZ-AMG-STYLE-EX...ht_3068wt_1139

4) Do you use a particular place to buy all your parts?

Thanks

1. For my exhaust setup, I did change my wheel well. You don't have to weld it, you glue it.

2. It's not for the non-AMG bumpers, but there was a member recently that had it done. He said it had to be modified, but didn't really provide details.

3. I used OEM tips that I bought from a member here on the board.

4. No specific place to buy parts, just figure out what you want and search for the place with the best price.

Nope, creeping up on 2 months. There's members here who have been waiting 7, 8 months for just a blower install.

You are lucky to have a shop who is even doing smth like this Wes. I am sure they are asking their time with it to make sure everything is 100% working right.

Judging from previous work to your car this should be perfect as well.
