I got another one! Can't believe I was able to get my hands on another bad Mercedes M156 AMG V8. This is one of the most powerful naturally aspirated V8's to come out of Europe, and the engineering behind it is impressive. Sadly, like any engine, it can be killed by neglect, torture or even unforeseen circumstances. This is one of the tougher teardowns I've done, which seems to be a trend amongst the European engines. Over 9 hours of filming on this one, 3 times that of your typical domestic V8.
Thankfully this engine was in MUCH better shape than the previous M156 I tore down, so I'll do pretty well on this core.
Want to see a particular engine torn down? I may have already done one! No really, check out my other videos for the engine you'd like to see! I've made over 60 other teardowns from a Cummins to an LS7, and from Rotary to Ram Ecodiesels. Check them out here    • Blown Up Engine Tear Downs! A collect...  
My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage business called Importapart located in the Saint Louis MO area. Part of our model is dismantling and selling parts from rare and niche market engines. I don't build or rebuild engines, we simply supply hard parts to those that do!

As always I appreciate all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism.
Don't miss next weeks teardown, its about time we had some carnage!
