Hey there, I wanted to share this project with you guys to see opinions and maybe a little bit of results from your end. And since is rare to find an evo 6 with a 2.4 block, I thought it would be nice to share some pics and info here.



I'm building a 4G64 block with 4G63 head, here some pics:

This is the latest picture before the build:



This is the latest one, sleeping... (with some 17x9 RPF1)



I will be on C16 + Meth, what numbers do you think it will get?

More updates coming soon...

 

I love it,

Looks a lot like what I'm in the middle of. My 4g64 came from a 2003 outlander and I still need to get my hands on evo 8 cylinder head core.

What C/R did you go with for your Manley pistons? I'm undecided, but will probably go with 9:1 with a slight increase after installing freeze plugs and having my deck resurfaced.

Build looks great!

 

Thanks!

I took the block from a mitsu galant in a junk yard it was a twin cam one.

I'm using 9:1 because of the gas quality here and yes, I think it will increase if you have your deck resurfaced.

 

That's a good find dohc 4g64 are hard to come by. Was it a 6 bolt as well?

Mine is a 7 bolt.

 

No, it is a 7 bolt too... 6 bolt were the old ones, first gen DSM (I think).

 

Is it running? Did you have any issues?

 

I'm waiting for some parts to mount it, hopefully will be done by wednesday

 

Everything is done and great, the car is tuned by Gadiel on 38+ Psi on a Jack trans and transfer, I had to change the rear differential.

I share with you this vid with a Shelby Cobra GT500 and me at 27 psi on VP C-16


Hopefully we will be on the track on april to share some results.

I will be posting more pictures and videos on my Racingram account: Gianfranco M

 

Did you have to notch your block to clear the turbo tuff rods? How's your oil pressure with the oil squirters?

Glad it's running, and your enjoying it! Can't wait to say the same.
