OE Kia coils run 7mm plug wires and voltage is the same as the Evo coils. welding new bosses for Evo coils make sense if using an aftermarket coil.
There was a Sparktech on the car. One of the bolts lines up which is enough to hold it down but really it just needs "refined" and its good to go.
Also, I don't know if any of you guys know somebody who does cnc work, but I would love to see somebody make up a cover for the coils like on the EVO valve cover. Would make it look a lot better. Could make some money off em too if more people start to source these heads.

Step 1: While you have the block sitting there you should test to see if a 63/64 front case cover will bolt and line up with the G4JS block. I did not test it and theres a 50/50 chance it might. If it does then you can simply swap in the EVO motor mount, the front case cover and everything attached, evo cam gears and call it a day. But if it does not then your off to step 2.

There may be a chance IF you changed the front case cover (I hinted at this earlyer) that you may then be able to get everything to work but I have not tested anything and its a long shot. But you do not need adjustible cam gears if your using a G4JS block for any reason so why worry about it. That and if your using a 4G64 block you have to use evo gears anyways.

I have a few questions. Just how close are the two bottom ends? If I had an Eagle crank or something, would it work in the block? Same questions for rods and pistons. I'm trying to find a forged piston that has the same static compression as the factory G4JS pistons. However, no one lists the compression ratio based off of hyundai heads, just 63 or 64 heads.
