Masterpiece ❤🎉😍

Can't wait to see it running!

was this project abandoned ? no updates for almost 4 years now

how much would a mechanic charge you think to replace 3rd gear with cyncro?

So, did you have any issues with your 6th gear engagement. All of the other gears in my transmission engage great except for 6th. The shifter moves back into place. It just doesn’t engage.

So glad i found this channel and got to be your 1k subscriber cause I'm saving to do this swap on a 65 notchback mustang and trying to learn from everyone to make it as painless and cheap as possible keep up the great work man

I had this idea 30+ years ago (I was working at a Mercedes-Benz dealer and owned a '68 Camaro) but ideas don't count unless you act on them. Engine setback is essential and I couldn't see cutting up my Camaro.

Really bugs me hoe they designed this transmission to have to be pressed together like that. Putting all kinda of lateral pressure on those bearings.

Hi bro i did the same way but after a year was dead because of water infiltrates where you cutted in the begining distroied the berring inside the electromotor so there needs to be done avoid water leak in.

Hi , wonderful idea and work. I been wanting to install a Mercedes V12 in my Ferrari 355 challenge body (no engine and transmission) I love the V12 because the sound, power and smoothness. The problem is that I don’t know how long this engine is compared to the mid engine space . If you have some measurements please send them to me. I’ll be waiting the rest of the videos to see and hear this great build. Thanks

Update?

Guys no Motor You can call electrical this is the Engine

So which one is the shift pads , shift rail stop and synchros 🤔

Hey! I am working on a 1993 600sl with the m120 engine. What are you using for an ecu, I have been having trouble finding one that will run 12 cylinders

Anyone have any cores? Im looking for a few for rebuild. Thanks.

Bro, I'm installing my unisteer rack this morning. How does it steer with all of those joints? I'm trying to get it down to just 2 joints. It's been a nightmare to make the rack for though with my headers.

Why did you decide to use 1/4 in brake line going to the rear, understanding that may be what was used but since you're installing all new brakes just wondering why you didn't go with 3/16? Great video very informative!

Hell yeah jeff duncan is a great dude!

Dude this is awesome! Love seeing UA-camrs from the next county over!

I did a rebuild to my mt82 but i have problem with 4th gear it makeing a grind noes and not going into the gear when i took it of a found no porblem in the 4th gear pr the slider I suspect that my inside shifter is having some problems can i text you to get some help ? I'll be so thankfull

awesome

200 bucks!! Hellva deal!

Awesome Video. Do you have the old Merc transmission available?

respectfully, cutting up a Renntech 7.4 ain't a good idea. that car should be restored, not hacked. do you realize how rare that car is? it's future Barrett Jackson material. I'm going to be blunt, brutally honest...if you need an M120 V12, pull it from a 4 door barge. The S600 and SL600 cars should be preserved !! Hacking that Renntech is like parting out an original 426 Hemi Cuda. it ain't too smart...

What particular brand of braided brake line did you use for the rear disks?

Great project guys- for your connection to your block flange ( the oval port shape) instead of cutting and pulling apart the tube( to large a gap) to make the oval try making a hobb in the correct oval shape and after annealing the piece simply push the hobb in (using a stout press and some grease) to form the oval to round connector. clean and easy. Also I know it is maybe to late but did you consider two 3 into 1 headers on each side like the Ferrari Daytona? That is my project-a Daytona replica with the M120 and a late model corvette transaxle like the original car configuration. Keep your gaps to a minimum also. Built a set like these for my straight six BMW M3.Two 3 into 1 on that. Made the 5 inch long collectors as well. Make great power- they are 34 inch long primaries, but space is a problem for the V12 with 6 pipes on each side. You should try welding them yourself- you will get nothing but better with the practice. Keep your weld joints oil and grease free- wipe them down with acetone- no residue. Good luck !

Your Channel is AWESOME!!! Longtime MB fan and big fan of modifying them like you are doing with your M120. I have a manual swapped C55 and E420 on my channel. Love your M120 build and have been searching through all of your vids, Great stuff! Sub'd!

I need your help I installed an oem throw out bearing in my mt82 i put everything back together when i started the car i heard a humming noise when i press the clutch pedal it goes away but when i release the pedal it comes back I didn’t drive the car yet when it was down I checked the input shaft it had very very little play what do you think it may be

hey man I could use some dimensions ill try and find your information because im making similar plate for m104 and will likely need another for a v12. what hurdles did you have ?

hello I wanted to know the single wire connected to the control unit where did you connect it exactly ?

Please tell me the details of the turbo kit you used for the m120 engine you have. Very important for me as I bought a twin turbo with super charger that is now gone unfortunately due to personal circumstances

Im working on a m120 swap atm, if you ever finish these mark me down for a set.

This is awesome engineering from your end of it. Keep it up!

Looking forward to an update on this. As fas as I have found, you are the only person out there making equal length headers for the M120!

hey so this last week all of sudden i was drving my manual mustang gt 2012 and noticed if i put my car into 3rd gear it would rev the engine it seems like i lost my 3rd gear, all other gears felt fine, my question is what do you think got damaged and needs to be replaced?

Possible to swap m120 to audi R8 1st gen, sir?

Curious, why did you not use the more powerful m137 engine from w220 s600? 😊

Sweeeeeeeett

Very cool project. Can't wait to hear the m120 sing

I really enjoyed the power steering installation on the Samurai! Thank you for sharing, you did a great job explaining the process too!

Will regular flare work or are they supposed to be button flares. Great video

Price for headers?

has anyone done this on a 90sToyota hilux solid axle??

Would you consider making a pair of equal length headers for the mercedes r129 sl600?

I'm in the same boat 454 short water pump about to fabricate my own brackets today mine is only going in a mud truck but same Concepts definitely a helpful video

Love the updates on the m120, keep it up!

I'm really glad you made this video! I'm doing a rebuild myself and all the other videos on this transmission are kind of vague this is well explained and easy to follow along with.

Wow way to much work , I just installed a power steering box out of Toyota , ordered kit for mounting and couple junk yard trips and put whole thing in for under $100 bucks . The most expensive thing was the new hose from Hose man what ever works .

Really enjoying these updates! What engine management system do you plan to use?
