"AMG is moving away from the kompressor line of their engines and using more normally aspriated 5.5L V8's with about 362 hp or so for their C55/SLK55 and CLK55 (which already has this engine). The upper echelon of the AMG line gets the 6.5L V8 Twin Turbo (pushing out around 700hp - 800+ lbs ft of tq) aptly named E65/S65/SL65/CL65."
if I recall correctly
the 65badge is actually a twin turbo 6.0 12 cylinder engine(604hp-738lbft.... drool) which debuted in the CL concept in (Geneva?) and soon to come in the SL. C and SLK will not get such a large engine, tried that with c43 to put a v8 and handling was a nightmare, new S4 case in point of too big an engine....
the 5.5 is a supercharged v8 and is currently being designed for use in upcoming merc SLR super FREAKING MONSTER CAR
