don’t use factory engines for racing to the best of my knowledge!

You can bore them, but you have to know what you are doing and how to etch the 
aluminum away from the silicon “liner” material so you get proper oiling of the 
cylinder walls.  My buddy Hans had one done a while back (20 years or so) when 
someone overheated a 560 badly and scored the cylinder walls.  

And I agree, sounds fishy to me.  Unless those were AMG cams, I’m not aware of 
“competition cams” being available for Benz engines, they don’t use factory 
engines for racing to the best of my knowledge!

I didn't know it was even possible to bore out a Mercedes engine.  This 
makes no sense.  Sounds like a 350 was dropped in
