X166 GLS 63 AMG platform limitations

An armored GLS 63 AMG can weigh up to 7000lbs, which slows the vehicle down considerably and places added stress on vehicle components.

What modifications would have to be done to a M157 GLS 63 AMG in terms of engine and drivetrain to have it safely and reliably operating at 7000lbs?

Thanks
