This is tempting to throw a v8 into. Not the right time for me though.

Nope, the non-SRT cars had a Mercedes sourced NSG370 transmission as standard(ha!), with a 5 speed automatic being optional. NSG is an acronym for the German "Neues Schaltgetriebe"; literally meaning "new switching transmission" or "new manual shifting transmission". The SRT6 Crossfire was auto only.

Yeah me too. Something new to watch out for, especially with the Novak Adapter for LSx engines...

I know those are basically a SLK320 generation Benz, but do they have the same type of clusterberkeley wiring(CANBUS?) that the SLK350 generation have?
