This may sound crazy but I wounder if it can be done. I have 1984
500SEC AMG sitting on my yard with body damage. The engine runs well except for few oil leaks which can be fixed easily. I am thinking of swapping the motor and gear box into a light Datsun like 280Z. This AMG has 300km/hr on the speedo, my 560 has 260, Does this meen that the 500AMG is faster than the 560? What problems I can anticipate doing such swap? I planning to fit the engine and transmition into the Datsun along with the fuel injection system.- posted
