actually u don't need the whole timing cover, u need an amg fabricated piece to hold one of the pulleys for it only, i didn't change mine ... although i think its better to change it to the 55k one because it already has routing to the engine oil cooler (us-spec 500's and 430's don't)

don't know if it helps on the oil cooler routing but i have a us spec clk 55. Can this piece you are referring to be ordered? Can the guy that made yours make another for me?

ahmed18881

yes i can be ordered but from germany, thats where i ordered mine, will look up the part number and send it to u

you are the man! i just received a partial shipment today consisting of the cams, valve covers and s/c assy.good gawd is that thing heavy!!!!!!

Pending are the pullies, waterpump and airbox assy's

Also is there a way i can contact you directly? can u pm it to me? next would you recommend i use the e55 cams or stick to the clk55 cams since i have the 10.5 pistons. thinking of valve to piston interference issues with lift if the 9:1 pistons used valve releifs(inverted dome)

i would imagine the clk 55 cams would be more aggressive since they are n/a cams.

almost forgot....the e55 cyl head assy's. which if rumors are correct are more efficient than the clk 55 heads on the exhaust ports plus the necessary valvesprings i need.

dohcfiend

too bad it isn't a dohc engine. i would use n/a intake cams and s/c exhaust cams.

NVM I WAS SCAMMED by jpohl402.......im out of the $$$ and don't feel like buying again for some time.
