Has anyone put e55 caps into there m113 engine. If I do this how would I go about doing so? Would I need a tune? I’m not looking for crazy power gain or to build a monster, just a smooth 380-400 hp from a variety upgrades I will do.

The e55 had 350 hp from not only the cam but a larger 5.4 liter size . The cam itself wasn’t really good for more than 25 hp. Even at 380hp it would barely feel different

Amen!
It appears that Mercedes Benz usually left MUCH less on the table than Ford and GM did. Hot-rodding a MB V8 is often not worth the effort and cost.

Buy a 2007-2008 s550 you’ll get the much more powerful engine
