Best recommendations for a 240
I have been in the middle of contemplating a few things,
How do i get better power,
which swap would be the most recommended,
i could step up to the 617,
and if i were to do that, would my 4spd man. bolt up.
also what is the highest horsepower levels and torque known?
any goals,
fuel economy is not a worry, im looking more for the power aspect,
or hypethetically speaking, if
i were to go through and drop a small block ford or chevy,
possibly AMG, what and where would you recommend???

You can find one in your local auto trader, eBay, newspaper, craigslist and many other places. Value of a 240D is anywhere between $600-4500 depending on year, condition, miles, documentation and rust. We would need to have more info on your car to give a narrower range.
