about three weeks ago. 3.5L 24-valve all aluminum six, 253 bhp, 255 lb./ft. at @ 3,000 rpm or so, with autostick and the uprated performance handling group.
My freind in OP has a 1980 Mercedes C230 with a 3.0 V6 Ford engine, fox Mustang power steering rack, F150 steering wheel, Tbird supercharger, Dodge Dakota front chin spoiler, hand made side skirts and rear bumper cover, a TON of custom brackets and other random parts, the list goes on and on…very clean and solid car, drives like it’s brand new. Here’s some pics before the supercharger install…
Yeah, he actually got a new shortblock (maybe longblock???) for it last year, not exactly sure what but I do remembering it being pretty stout and had forged internals. Funny comment about the snobs because he also drives an '05 C230sport Mercedes…
