[W126 Coupe] Horsepower in 380 and 500 sec's

[chris schafer]

Someone put a price on this please.
10-1 pistons = rebuild engine = $?
tri-y exhaust manifolds = $?
Cams = $?
Euro EZL = $?
Custom exhaust = $?

Total $ = 300HP

An LS2 6.0 crate motor produces 400HP and costs $5,500 (Crateenginedepot.com)
And there is plenty of info on pumping one up another 100HP with bolt ons.

As our engines wear out and MB parts prices go up is it any wonder that a Chevy engine swap looks good? Might be a good idea to put a kit together.

"For our US cars to reach the 300HP range you'll need 10-1 pistons, 4 piece tri y manifolds, cams, and I believe the Euro EZL and KE units make a difference as well.Oh, and no cats"
