-Although there is plenty of space in the motor compartiment of the Chrysler Crossfire, Chrysler never released a Crossfire with a V8. The tuning company Startech did, however, make a V8, called the STARTECH Crossfire 6.1S. This Crossfire is equipped with a M113 engine, with a displacement of 6 liters, and only 1 was made supposedly.

 If you want to swap your engine from the stock 3.2L M112 V6 (or the supercharged version of the SRT6) to a M113 V8, you need to make sure of a couple things. Big thanks to The Mercedes Swap Shop for providing information.

 *The power cable running from the battery to the alternator and starter motor was too short and didn't fit the V8 alternator.
 *The A/C, powersteering, transmission oil cooler, all are longer than they should be and will have some issues fitting properly.
