ok guys I have an 01 eclipse rs
as you guys know it comes with a 4g64 and you can do the evo swap on it.
ok well I found a head and the guys selling it say it's off an evo VIII but I didn't think the evo VIII came MIVEC but could they have done a Valve cover swap?
Will a EVO IX valve cover fit and EVO VIII?
here r some pics of the head.
Like I said I'm new to EVO's and I keep on searching for the answer but It's a pain with all the Posts that come up so I decided to post in the Newbs forum
The head





Intake Manifold

 

That is an Evo IX head....

 

can you tell me how you can tell?

 

yeah looks like an IX head... look at the cam/cam gear on the intake side... it has that one thing that protrudes for mivec (??)...

 

ok that's what I thought but for 150 I think I can buy it and re sell it for more

 

o for 150 bucks... buy it dude... if youdon't i will send me the link... NOw!!!!!!!

 

deff a IX head. You can tell by the timing spool on the intake cam gear and the timing/oil diverter plug under the intake cam right next to the 1st cylinder

 

it's an IX. look at the mivec intake cam gear cover. for god sake, it even say mivec on the valve cover

 

if the seller doesnt even know its a evo ix head i wonder if its stollen?

 

the seller doesn't know cuz he doesn't deal with Mitz. he deals with hondas and 240s but yeah I bought it and now I need to sell it but that will be later since I only have 6 posts only 44 more to go
