Just started pulling my Mercedes motor yesterday was curious what you used for motor mounts. Thanks for the videos they helped me gather up some parts in advance to getting going much appreciated 🤙
I am currently having some issues with my '03 C230K. It had a small fire by the starter and cooked some nearby wiring. This in addition to a transmission issue I was about to investigate before the "fire". I have the engine harness removed to replace some wiring. The starter is sent out for a rebuild. If there are any issues when it goes back together then look out, an LS is next!
You’re right brother it happened to me but at the time when I was doing my build, I couldn’t find a v8 version and if I did they were way over priced so I ran the V-6 trans then when it blew up I bought all the v8 gear rebuild set for about $800. I have a very strong transmission now.
I’m considering doing an LSswap in my 09 C350 W204. I want that LS reliability. Shouldn’t be too difficult from other Js swaps I’ve done. Where did you get your drive shaft done?
Could you do a video on how you connected your fitech ecu I’m confused on if you use the oem 4.8 ecu and harness or just the fitech? I have zero clue when it comes to wiring stuff up
@@remone2013 I purchased those motor mounts from eBay and then I modified them to work from my application somewhere in one of the videos. You will see me creating something different with the motor mounts that I purchased. Anything else you need brother let me know I got you
