Just was curious if anyone knows if you got to a mitsubishi dealer ship would they install a oem engine for the evo 9. I mean I know it wont be brand new just was curious if they do

 

These dealerships are in business to stay in business so my inclination would be "yes" they would likely quote that

The problem is getting a reasonable quote to do that work. Dealerships are inherently very expensive due to a very large "over head" burden

Call them & negotiate a deal !

 

To be honest, they did such a crappy job on my Outlander timing belt that I don't trust them to button up my evo right. I'd rather go to an evo specialist over dealer, but I don't 100% trust they will fully button up my evo. It will mostly be there (close enough if you don't want to learn to do it yourself and soend the time). Good luck with which ever way you choose.

 

I don't know if you can still get a complete engine, they used to be around, maybe one of the vendors still has one in stock.

Mechanics work as fast as possible to beat the flat rate. This is fine for most small jobs, buzz it off, buzz it on, done. For an engine swap you need to be a bit more methodical. So, I'd search for the right person, not the right business. Talking to individual mechanics, assessing their experience and willingness is key.

 

Very well said.

OP,
Even though you likely won't find a new, complete, oem longblock, you can still find new shortblocks and new cylinder heads around. All what you would need to buy are head studs and a new OEM head gasket to mate the two. The rest of the parts can be robbed off of your old long block assuming they are still good. Since you are looking for someone to do the work for you, it will be very expensive no matter what you try to do.

 

why wouldnt they?
