A 500SEC with a V12 engine and new interior is one of my dream cars!!
I always loved the coupes. Had a CL600 that I just could not stop looking at. What kept me from this vintage was the wiring harnesses. Watching the progress, thank you guys!
@@mikewilliams4947 why? There’s no wiring harness issues with these cars
@@peakperformance8960 they did. The plastic casing on the engine looms deteriorated prematurely.
@@mikewilliams4947 I've only seen that on cars with the degradable wiring harnesses, any of the 80s or early 90s mercedes cars I own have been fine
@@peakperformance8960 yes thank you for that update. The ones with the biodegradable harness did have a coup version too iirc. Anyway awesome cars! It takes a special kind of person to drive one of these things.
That's awesome, I didn't know Jack Black was into cars
I wish he’d pipe down. I’m here for Shehryar’s infinite wisdom.
@@Akilois1001gs yall will hate for absolutely nothing the man was barely speaking.
This is why i read coments
Stefan is 100% less of an arsehole than Jack Black
Guy talks waaaay to much! He's messing up the flow.
You walk in the shop and see Jack Black, in the engine bay of an 500SEC sighing and saying "F**k me" WWYD?
You guys are unbelievable. Amazing work. This is what you call entertainment. Can't wait to see the finished result 👍🏻
Dude every video I'm still mind blown
Clean work as always🙌🏻
I mean, the real question behind all this is "why not?".
Bold. I like it.
that 500sec looks so good
I’m super impressed with the relative simplicity in getting the V12 in there.
Just wondering how long we will have Stefan gracing us with his presence on your channel?
I see Stefan is wearing a "Skid Factory" tee shirt.
Such cool projects on the go!!!👌
Stefan's Skid Factory T-shirt though!
As someone who swapped a Mercedes m273 into a mini truck this makes me very happy!
into a mini truck???
@@THESLlCK yes 2 different trucks and 3 separate engines, i call them V1,V2 and V3
@@b2kbabe219 now that is cool
Can't wait to see them in action :D
Awesome wide body SEC, but an e55 engine (NA or kompressor) probably would have given more than enough power and not upset the weight distribution too badly. A biturbo V12 is an awfully heavy and long engine...
I agree. A NA E55 would be sweet
There's a company in Poland - K-jet killers - and they do a conversion to EFI with standalone ECU. But you decided to swap V12 in it.... this project looks sweet btw.
Good day can I have the contacts to that company in Poland
@@sokhayagubevuman5547 Sure... Type in google kjet killers pl and you'll find them. And you can change languages on their web page.
Cheers
@10:06 You have to go with bigger turbos the option for smaller turbos is an absolutely entirely impossible option. I agree. Haha I love it. The option for smaller turbos was not even considered.
Awesome!!))Never seen before same swap!🔥
Damn! Nicely done!
Massive respect guys great work..
oh hey it's Jack Black :D
Wicked cool project. 🇨🇦
I'm really interested in this, will the haltec work the esp on the car or will that be deleted. I've a cl600 and its interesting to see we can do a haltec conversion on the car and get rid of some of the failure points.
WOW! Great Combo👍
Love the projects.
I also spy a Skid Factory shirt under those overalls!
Called that on the r107 oil pan. I'm not familiar enough with the newer m113 family to say which engine would be the correct donor but that original rear sump pan was a huge issue. My drift car is a c107 so I've looked very deeply at different engine swap options.
Ain't gonna love the mileage but appreciate the pain n headache you guys had to go through. Love 80's mercs, got me a 280e my self. 👍
This is amazing 😻
Subbed. Thank you for this
I thought the title was "putting a Mercedes V12 in 500 SEConds" I was like damn these guys are beasts 🤣🤣
Can't wait to see how you accomplish steering.
If you're going standalone on the V12 will you replace the mercedes coilpacks with COP's?
Seems like there's not that much space between plugs.
What a project great taste
Great project.
subscribed!!
What a job!😅👌 That will be great car when finished.
Oho
My dream car is 190 2.3 16v or the 2. 5 16v. But I do like your sec en what your going to do with itt. Gratings from the Netherlands
great project
Gotta love those WE12s
i love it!
thats my dream swap! enjoying every part of job
How are you going to get all the electronics to talk and be light free with ecu Bcm and cluster
Did you guys ever finish this 500SEC is it for sale ?
Love these projects. Look forward to seeing this Channel grow.
Did you ever finish this?
What Year, Model is the V12 out of?
Variable Timing Engine?
Growing up, the SEC was my dream car! I wonder if the V12 would fit onto my Edition 507?
Great video and great projects! Just wanted to let you know that Stefan's Instagram link in your description does not work.
What did you do with the F1 style pistons?
Iapan got boat loads of desirable AMG conversions . LHD is a status symbol with those guys who have full body tattoos.
on that V8 ,It's constant injection KEJet , more hydraulic that mechanical ,the actual mechanical injection,MFI was introduced on Mercedes cars with the gullwings and 300C models of the early 50's. It looks like a diesel set up. Porsche was still using in their race winners up into the 1980's.
On the engine you pulled, see if it has adjustable tappets, if so,the engine is a hot one ,high compression and will have "AMG 5.0" stamped into the ends of the cams.
Putting the M116-117 into Fintails, they are lighter than the old six units.
Stefan uses imperial units. Let me get my popcorn.
Can you fit my v12 bi turbo I have on a stand in my 2004 S500? I have the engine already . The car runs great, I just want to swap it. But I know I need someone who knows their stuff.
Diabolical build boys......outstanding, can't wait to see the final product.
Where are you located?
Toronto
So cool
I actually have one and wanted to do this exact same thing. Where are you guys located?
So many projects at once
have you consider rearmount turbos
due to the extra weight of the engine, are you going to do something to keep "healthy" weight balance preventing heavy nose ?
Was this ever finished? Was it impossible to complete?
awesome!!! i have been waiting holy crap. did you guys get any info on wheter this was converted or actually came from afterbach. this is the only thing i would ok, usually this car is so rare and awesome but a rrv12 thats freaking bitchin. please let me or in next vid. i cant wait to see this thing. im a premerger amg lunatic!!!!! godspeed gents
How much you selling old engine for?
In some config it had 265 hp and 405 Nm from 1987.
I love how much work youre getting. I gotta admit i was a bit sceptical in the beginning but this is so cool :)
Keep it ip
What does a Japan use for road treatment during Winter? It is definitely not salt.
That SEC has different fenders, not familiar with wide body version, but looks awesome
I bought a very clean 560SEC. Would you be interested in doing a V12 or M119 V8 or M113K swap in it?
How are the gauges gonna work? I assume that biturbo V12 revs differently than the original engine.
@black boi They will be using a stand-alone computer to control the electronics and the gauges.
@@BlagoP ah ok
I need something to eat, read the title as Mercedes V12 burrito..
Easy access to stand alone PCM for the M275 engine and trans combo would be awesome. Better yet, do away with the stupid fragile coil modules at the same time.
Is this completed yet?
Why did you choose this engine? Does the car has the wide body kit, if so, how was it mounted?
I want also know that
Hello brother interested to buy the engine
Youre not first one
We did it in iraq 😉
It need alot of work ...well done
Very naiiice
Me struggling to identify the very friendly host's wonderful accent. Check the channel's 'About' info; oh... Yes, of course!! It's a traditional Canadian accent (a perfect example). I didn't immediately recognize it, as I don't hear it very often. And note: I'm Canadian !! Cheers !! :-)
Your next investment must surely be a 3D scanner so you can model the fitment of replacement engines
Nice job same mercedes but l put another engine E 320 cdi on s500 same as you have on this video
is this project for sale?
The "shoehorn (technique)" you used to get that engine into that old bay is so "👍🏾"
yo we still waiting to see how it turned out
It's the one and only Black Jack!!! Love the crossover
Hey guys how much did this project cost the client ? Please let me know
Did you guys upgrade:
1) the driveshaft
2) the differential
3) rear wheel rims and tires
Because the horsepower and torque of that M275 is quite high.
I always thought about doing these swaps since my mid 20s now I’m in my 30s and they’re starting to happen. Guess my gen is starting to get money now and make these dreams a reality
Loving the build, awesome remix of Outkast's "Mainstream" during the turbo removal. Smooth.
European modern hot rods my cup of tea👍
your engine hoist needs some TLC too
Sick af bro!! Looking forward to seeing it on the road in action soon?
Amazing. You guys need an apprentice?
🦁 ❤️
Most people associate V12 with supercar and supercar with power. But V12s don't actually make much power. V12zms allow higher displacement without oversquaring the bore so you can rev it higher and still keep a small package.
Most modern V12s are only built to be smooth. More cylinders means they fire closer together and timing can be set so they dont rumble, vibrate or drone.
For big power V8 is ideal. As much as I hate to admit it since I'm not a V8 guy.
What happened to the swap?
9:35 the lick
😍
should convert it to manual too lol
What did you charge for a job like this?
9:28 ... The Licc.
Steering rack?
No problem, it cleared
It's one size fits all anyway 😆
BE VERY careful around those 560sec euro headlights they do t makes them anymore you cant find lenses also if you remove them be very careful because they break internally and will brake plastic parts that cant be found.
He has a CNC machine, I bet he can build a whole new headlight.
in Germany you can find one
@@montyvanpython lenses or the whole headlights ? I paid 1500.00 for a decent pair
@@zenjamin6262 ca. 800€ each side for a refreshed one
@@zenjamin6262 what??? They’re like 150 each over here 😂 for 1500 I would of sent you 3 pairs
