TBI shortblock with vortex heads and injection.... from just the little bit I’ve read, should put out just slightly more than a stock vortec does. I could be wrong though... and goin to do a little more research before cutting and pasting...

Sounds like a good time to me! Keep us up to speed on it!

Whooped another E350 this afternoon. Benz owners are so cocky. I drafted him up to 120 a couple times, then with me in the left and him in the right, I got the traffic break in the center, and was gone. He caught up to me later, and wouldn't even look over.. i love this fvcking car!!! Got off the highway, picked up oil change materials, and showed it some love by installing the curb feelers after an oil change, fuel filter cleaning , and transmission fluid check. Pimpin' ain't easy, b*tches!!

"That could not have been me, officer. This old car only has a V6, here, let me pop the hood and show you."

Thanks, man! That's a good one! Have to keep it in mind....
BTW, the ol' lady is no fan of the curb feelers. "JFC, if it didn't look enough like an old man's car.... They're ugly.....blah, blah, blah"
I have no expectations of them lasting very long. I had to recrimp the bracket end in the vise before I even put them on. It'll be good for a few laughs and WTFs for a minute, especially if another E350 gets in my way!

I'd guess that most people under 50 don't even know what they are.

Just tell young peeps they are horizontal stabilizer antennas for your gigahertz suspension response articulators . . .

Sensors for the auto-paralell parking system.... my daughter even said "but, daddy, you never park sideways anywhere".

Had to throw some brake pads on. Had an idea for the wheels- yea pr nay?

It's just mocked up with electrical tape; I'd probably do satin black paint.
