I know i shouldnt revive this old thread, but i could use this info as well!
 
if you want to dohc you stock block go raid a dohc proton for it's head, engine loom and ecu. in reality for all the stuffing around you need to do it's easier to just perform an entire engine conversion.
 
For the amount of time and costs of building the motor, you could pick up a Proton M21/GTi engine for around $500 with everything you need

Or a GSR turbo engine for around $800
 
You're better off going Proton GTi or M21 DOHC 4G93P. I've got a DIY with instructions here: http://www.evocoupe.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3014&p=26144#p26144
:eek: someone had wiped out my DIY thread and I dont have a copy :(
A lot of it I remember in my head though. Fark it was a massive right up and Im a bit pissed off its been corrupted or deleted :angry:
Anyway, just grab the Mitsu ECU'd version of the Proton 4G93P DOHC engine. It uses the Mitsu ECU and coil packs etc. Year models 1998-2002 basically.
If you get the SIEMENS ECU versioned engine you're in a bit of strife and need to change a whole lot of things like the throttle body, coil packs, crank angle sensor etc to GSR items. You'll know the SIEMENS engine as it has Bosche coil pack and idle control and a black sensor bolted on the top face of the intake manifold.
Fark Im pissed about that happening :angry:
 
I should have added the fact that i am in Jamaica, so no Proton's here. Will do some looking around for lancers or colts being scrapped. thanks for the info B)
 
Oh and also you have a CE lancer (Seventh Generation) :p so i take it you have the 4G92 1.6 SOHC

There is a number of engines that can fit in your car, listed below (you can also fit engines that came in the Eighth Generation lancers

4G13 - 1.3 SOHC
4G15 - 1.5 SOHC
4G15 - 1.5 DOHC
4G91 - 1.5 SOHC
4G92 - 1.6 SOHC
4G92 - 1.6 DOHC MIVEC
4G93 - 1.8 SOHC
4G93 - 1.8 DOHC
4G93T - 1.8 DOHC TURBO
4G94 - 2.0 SOHC
4G63T - 2.0 DOHC TURBO
4G69 - 2.4 SOHC

6A12 - 2.0 QUAD CAM
6A12 - 2.0 QUAD CAM MIVEC
6A13 - 2.5 QUAD CAM
6A13TT - 2.5 QUAD CAM TWIN TURBO


Most of these engines can be sourced from Japan, Philipines, India and here in Australia
 
the 4g92 mivec head also fits the 4g93 block :) bit of work involved though and aftermarket computers needed.

if i ever get bored enough and want to fork out the dosh i might do a 4g93/2T hybrid.
