I think you need

Evo9
  • lower thermostat housing
  • thermostat
  • water pipe
  • longer coolant hoses

You won't have a functioning heater if you do this. The Evo8 has the hot side heater hose connection on the lower t-stat housing, the Evo9 has it on the head. So you'll loose the hot side heater hose connection.

Just FYI.

How badly corroded is your current water pipe? If it's not falling apart/broken, you could have the zinc plating redone.

Thank you for your advice! It's bad right now radiator coolant is leaking, also hoses are bad too.
My car is EVO 7, but it has EVO 8 block on. The previous owner has done that.
