Hello chaps,
As some of you might have seen from another thread on here - I recently tiptoed between a AMG 3.4 and a 300E-24.
Lack of paperwork and documentation on the AMG making it impossible to import in the end I went for the 300E-24.
Specs are:
300E-24 NON-KAT 231 BHP Manual sportline.
Sports chassis, E500 leather interior ordered from factory.
Now my plans for it is keeping it fairly stock, but I do hanker after some more power.
So choice #1
- 2x custom cams,, brand new ones with another duration and lift. ( 1300 quid)
Choice #3: E36 Engine transplant - around 4.000 quid including labour and parts.

- Exhaust, stainless from the manifolds and all the way out, complete everything installed and fitted (1700 quid)
This should yield around 25-40 bhp when set up properly.
Choice #2: Convert to electronic fuel injection - would likely cost the same all in.
Choice #3: E36 Engine transplant - around 4.000 quid including labour and parts.
What would be the best choice here?
