mtso Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 New Mitsi owner here, Looking at options for the ute as we have oil in the water and someone has very helpfully stripped the carb, soo at a minimum I believe I would require a carb kit and a new head. Ute has done 180k. ute has a five speed and am curious about simple engine transplant using a more economical engine that would mate to the existing trans. Any help greatly appreciated.

If you want quick and easy just replace or fix the current one. More economical is probably hard? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Thanks for the replies. possible head on TM but no carb so far. 4g63 sohc engine would be great if I could find a good one, then the bellhousing wide /narrow problem. Does anyone know the model/yr of vehicles with 4g63 sohc that will fit the ute ie mate to the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
