I recently bought an evo that got wrecked, block got cracked and the front end was trashed.

every thing seems to measure out straight, i want to get a motor into it and make sure everything is top notch before doing an actual build and trying to get a rebuilt salvage title.

So far i have:

4g64 from like an 03 eclipse
water pump adapter
adjustable cam gears
Balance Shaft Elimination Kit
And a boost gauge so i don't over boost the stock 2.4
I am going to order some more gaskets, oil pan, valve cover, exhaust mani, ect.

The car has on it already a full 3"(I think) exhaust, CAI, MBC.

i have both of the motors torn down, and before i need to make sure i use all of the right everything so i don't do anything wrong.

evo water pump
evo oil pump
a gates T256 timing belt. (MD182292)
Fel-Pro head gasket (26172PT)
I am going to order some more gaskets, oil pan, valve cover, exhaust mani, ect.


..So my questions are:

When putting the motor back together what is evo and what is 2.4?
Do i have the right timing belt and head gasket?
What else do i need to buy?
Is there anything that i need to watch out for?
what do i need to set the cams to? +3.75 or -3.75? or something else?


Thank you guys and any questions you can answer would be great.

Bump..... anybody??

 

No one?

 

if you search you will find all the answers you need. i kno i did. im in the process of doing the same thing. but you are on the right track.

 

yeah I've found most of these answers and my engine is almost all back together figuring out the timing belt settings atm.. just wanted to try and get as much info in one thread but I didn't know anything when I started it lol

 

You should have did what this guy did but with turbo pistons instead.
