S63/65/69?

I read somewhere the capacities/hp and torque for all these cars but cannot remember where I saw it.

I want to know the capacities (litres), whether it is NA or BiTurb, how much BHP and the torque figures.

Cheers

Excellent, just what I wanted to know.

Is the 6.9ltr a new engine or is it rebored?

It is a further evolution of the current 65 engine. Yes it is rebored.

It will not be a 6.9 L motor

The 3 valve block can not go beyond about 6.3L with turbos and 6.7L without turbos. The block can not take the stress of being 6.9L with serious amounts of forced induction. The Brabus V12 is 6.3L so I see the AMG version being nothing more than 6.5L max (if that). This motor is not like the old quad cam motor which could go to over 7.4L with out any touble. But then again that motor did not use turbos.

I think the S69 name plate is just there to link the car back to the old 450SEL 6.9 form the 70's.

S65 is a 6.0L motor and the S600 is 5.5L so I doubt the S69 will be 6.9L.
