Hi guys, Can I simply exchange a 420 ,500 or 560 engine to my 380SEC? Any extra requirements? Can the engine be from a sedan or does it have to be from another coupe? Or if this is too big an issue can you suggest any way to pep up my 380? All I have done so far is modify exhaust. It has done around 150,000 miles and runs smoothy.Could do with some extra mid range grunt and that slow change from 2nd to 3rd is apparently "normal"?.......I want a manual gearbox!....Barry (Brisbane AUS)
