def not a benz but my buddies junkyard build ran pretty ok for driving it to the track at cecil 250,000 miles on this motor junkyard trans too.

 

Neat. Turbo 4.8 or 5.3?

 

That's it. I'm putting a aluminum 5.3 turbo w/6 speed in my c43. I give up

 

Super sleeper

 

5.3 if any need tips etc tuning sloppymechanics.com matt happel, knows his stuff as you can see by the times alot would hate because for very little money it flys

 

Bad ***. Ego killer for sure!

I love these types of builds. Stock suspension and brakes?

 

might be rear disc from a mustang yea all i know is matt jams a football in one of the rear springs and pumps it up.

 

Wow what's a setup like that run? $$
