Would it be possible to use a 4b11 engine head on a 4g63?

It may very well be, but I would really have my doubts. But with enough fabrication, anything is possible.

Man, I hope it will be easy to do and cheap the additional help of mivec on a turbo would be insane for spool up.

you do realize there is a 2006 evo IX that has this right??

you have a better chance in getting the evo 9 head on an evo8 block then u do with that junk that comes on the X to fit onto the evo8

Is everyone forgetting the fact that the turbo now sits between the firewall and motor? A lot more work than just swapping the head since the cams and tranny sit the same way as previous evo's. Just my 2cents....

This is the most retarded idea possible. You do realize that the 4B and the 4G are reversed? Use your brain alittle bit before you post useless banter on the forums man. USELESS YOU ARE.

Isnt the 4B a Chrysler motor as opposed to a true blue 4G Mitsu Powerplant?

Krazy srt4,
you are correct the X uses a timing chain
I don't know why some people waste our time with a stupid question like this. If you want intake and exhaust MIVEC then buy an Evo X. This idea is insane and would cost more money than it is worth. If you have that kind of money put it tward somingthing more useful that will make you more power. If you want more spool build a stroker.
