Very strange question

Um I dont know if this is going to sound dumb but you can tell me if its a dumb idea if you wish. What would I have to do in order to rip out the EVO 7 motor and put it in my OZ if possible. Such as will it fit. What would I have to change in all? And so on . Let me know if its a bad idea or whatever your feedback might be.

This has been brought up before I believe. Run a search for "swap", "drop" and "4g63" or any combo of the words. Lot's of money though...new transmission, you'd need to move some stuff around to accomadate the AWD setup...etc....

Here is a thread that should help you...Mirage and Lancer have a similar problem. BTW, a "used" EVO VII engine, with tranny, ECU, all sensors and wiring harness should cost around $10K...not the kind of budget project I have in mind.

Mwaha...warranty...if you're considering something as massive as a full engine/tranny swap...that should be the last thing on your mind...hehehehe...

Keep in mind, AWD will not work unless you cut the rear floor panel of the car and use an EVO counterpart...Labor costs will be sky high...
