Don't think anyone ever has.


You'd need to change more than just the engine though... at minimum I'd suggest engine, transmission, and all relevant computers.

Ideally you'd do this on a 2009 or newer 250 since the pre-09 ones didn't have VDIM, which the 350 computers will be expecting the car to have.

Probably want to get a 350 rear end while you're at it so the correct diff. gearing is there.

It depends on how much the cost in Russia. Do they even sell the 350 there?
