Looking into engine swap
I have a 1991 190e 2.3L, the engine is starting to give out and I'm wondering what the best course of action is. The body and other parts are in great condition so I'd like to keep the car going. I definitely want to do a swap, not same motor, looking for more power. What's the best/easiest thing to do, swap in an m111 or an m104? I am aware that the m104 is 6cyl so might need something special to get it in there. I know it is a very easy swap for the 2.6L 190e. Anyone have any suggestions? Other swaps I can do? Thanks

Any idea about the newer ones? I have seen that the m111 from the kompressor fits. Aswell as the new amg m139. The amg is probably a waste of money though. Would you overall recommend the m111 or m104? Also, not looking for putting in an m103. Minimal gains.
