Bid for your chance to own this M104 AMG 3.4-Liter Engine & 722.5 5-Speed Automatic Transmission only on The MB Market! This pairing was pulled from a 1992 300CE 3.4 that was previously auctioned and is offered out of California.

@Smcase22 I assume we will be connected by the modurator?
@smcase22 huge congrtas!
For anyone looking for shipping quotes: The weight of the engine and trans is 730lbs sitting attached on the metal cradle we built for it. Add another 50lbs for the box we will build for it, so you are looking at 780lbs. The box dimensions will be 34" wide, 64" long and 34" tall. We will build a very secure container for this. My guys have experience with shipping large and heavy freight.
The compression test came back really good. Cylinder 1 190 Cylinder 2 190 Cylinder 3 180 Cylinder 4 185 Cylinder 5 190 Cylinder 6 195 Keep in mind that the compression test was done cold since the engine is out of the car. Readings are slightly lower than they would be when hot. Cold metal components have tighter clearances. Our readings are pretty strong and consistent, especially since the test was done cold. They might even be higher when the temperature is warm. The normal range in most healthy gasoline engines is cylinder compression in the range of 170–210 psi when warm.
@MercAddict2010Unfortunately, I don't.
@Osssie, The engine will be shipped in a crate. As you can see in the photos, we have already built a metal cradle for the engine and the transmission. I don't know how much it would cost to ship to Belgium. I'm happy to provide dimensions and weight so you can get an estimate.
@AnEffinWookie 1) I will include the whole shifter assembly which bolts to the transmission tunnel. I might still need the trim piece, but if I don't, I will supply it with the sale. 2) It's a Pioneer head unit DMH-W3050NEX 3) If I don't need the air intake shroud, which I don't think I will, then I will include it as well. I will confirm with my shop this week and let you know.
@yaohIt really is. It produces great power, and the five-speed Euro transmission is an excellent pairing for drivability.
@UncleFred1 It appears that the engine wiring harness is integrated into the car and is not detachable. As we get deeper into the project, I'm sure we will remove(cut) most of it, so I can definitely provide anything that's left over from the conversion to the buyer. The ECU will come with the sale.
@arizonanights There is but I can choose to lift it.
@UncleFred1Please find my answer below: Was a compression test done on the engine prior to removal? - No, but I'll have that done ASAP and provide the results. Do you have any videos of the engine when it was in the donor car running before removal? - Yes in the videos posted. How much of the wiring harness for the engine do you have… I can see some, but just want to find out if you have the entire wiring harness for it and what is missing if you don’t. - TBD determined soon. I need to see how much of OEM harness we are going to retain, if any. I should have an answer for this over the next day or so. Do you have the ECU for the unit? - Yes I do. I don't expect to need it, and I will provide it with the sale if I dont. You’re not away from me, so I can come take a look, but would like to get a few more details if possible… Thanks! - Come by any time
@C43EZRider, I'm installing the motor, transmission, and rear end out of a 2008 SL65.
