Mercedes-AMG M156 Crate Engine — 1,500HP Forged Build

The Mercedes-AMG M156 6.2L naturally aspirated V8 — one of the greatest AMG engines ever produced. Hand-built, high-revving, and brutally strong. The last true AMG V8 before forced induction. An icon.

YPG builds every M156 crate engine in-house with forged internals rated to 1,500HP+ under forced induction. No core exchange required. Typical build time is 2-4 weeks with free worldwide shipping.

Engine Specifications

  • Displacement: 6.2L / 6,208cc
  • Configuration: V8 naturally aspirated
  • Construction: Hand-built AMG, aluminum block and heads
  • Valvetrain: DOHC 32-valve
  • Crankshaft: Forged
  • Stock Output: 451–507HP depending on variant

What's Included

Complete forged long block assembly — heads, block, forged crankshaft, forged connecting rods, forged pistons, and valve train. The base engine ships as a long block, but can be configured with supercharger kits, turbo manifolds, and accessories depending on your build. Contact YPG Motorsport to spec your build.

  • Mercedes-AMG E63 W212 (2010-2013)
  • Mercedes-AMG CLS63 W219 (2007-2010)
  • Mercedes-AMG CLK63 Black Series (2008)

Build Potential

The M156 is an exceptional platform for forced induction. With forged internals, the engine supports supercharger and turbo builds producing 1,500HP+. The factory connecting rods are the weak point above 600HP under boost — the YPG forged build eliminates this limitation entirely.

For naturally aspirated builds, the M156 responds well to ported heads, aggressive cam profiles, and intake work — producing 550-600HP NA with the right combination.
