This week, the Carmudgeons welcome special guest Matt Kwiek, mastermind of numerous outrageous Mercedes engine swaps.
Matt helped Derek swap the engine in Derek's Holy Grail purple ("Bornite") S124 E320 dogleg-manual wagon from a 3.2-liter to a freshly built 3.6-liter from a W202 C36 AMG.
The swap happened at Jason's warehouse with the help of his Bendpak lift — and the motor is a straight drop-in. Easy work for Matt Kwiek, who built a reputation for custom engine swaps in older Mercedes.
The Carmudgeons both spent time driving Matt's white C126 500SEC, which features a 5.4-liter M113 (from an S55 AMG) and computer-controlled 722.6 5-speed automatic transmission.
