I am interested in rebuilding the engine in my '93 300SE, but have a few questions:

1) can this be done in-car or do I have to pull the engine
2) are there any kits
3) anything else I need to be warare of, gotchas and so forth. I have rebuild american and jap car engines before so I am familar but this car seems to be a beast of a different color when I least expect it

Thanks,

Tony

 

the engine is very easy to pull out. less things to detach.

you can save time by doing it and you can explore more if it is exposed.

just two hours and it's out of the engine bay!
