Why I will never go back to a 2.0L
Typically because 2.4l motors can't rev and stay together at 9k plus when drag racing. Most builders don't prefer using the 4g64 block because of less cylinder wall meat but some say it's still plenty.

Alien? Dont quite follow. Its been being put in DSMs with the 16V head since 98, its pretty known tech. Heck it was factory in 99 in the Spyder (non turbo though).
Besides running a waterpump spacer and having weird timing gear marks I don't know of too much more differences over the standard 4g63 in terms of install
isnt there some kind of fix needed to run mivec on one? i remember reading on the original owners reciept for this build that there was a charge on it for the mivec feed fix or something
yes the 4g64 requires tapping for the mivec line
I originally had the 4g64 in my galant, so when I built the motor, I have the same displacement that came with car from factory, actually its the factory block for mine. 2.4LR with an evo 8 head. If you get nice cam gears, timing isn't that far off. And if you degree your cams like your supposed to, its not the complicated at all. yes the outlander water pump will work. did I use it? no, i used the spacer.

I have been wanting to contact you about having an engine built but I am limited to forum actions as I am a new forum member😔
Yeah call English Racing. Or email them.
