hi all, group thinking cap required
i know that the head is ass about with the intake and exhaust ending up on the wrong sides when engine is turned about, but,
can the later evo blocks accept the earlier heads and be swung around to sit on the pasenger side? is much involved?
are there differences in the timing belt arrangements and or tensioners? do all the brackets interchange ok?
does starter swap sides ok?

damn site easier to just get an earlier evo motor jack. less hassle and probably cheaper even if that motor is only fifty bucks!

Rewelding engine and gearbox brackets, same for crossmember brackets, changing length of wires (or undoing loom and re-routing in different direction if they reach), placement of airbox, aircon pipes, radiator hoses... man, more hassle than its worth and will be harder to chase up a replacement engine in future. EVO 4-6 engines still suffer from crankwalk just like the 1-3's do anyway. Is it really worth the hassle going through all that instead of waiting for an Evo I-III block to come up for sale?

I have seen an Evo IX engine in an Evo I-III racecar over here. But that was an extreme way of taking advantage of class rules. From what I understand, a later model subframe went in without too much hassle. But there was definitely some cut 'n' weld when it came to the mounts either side of the engine bay.

only asking about the block.
will it bolt to a gsr gearbox if it is narrow block?
it wont need to use roll stoppers as they are on the gearbox.
will the evo 1-3 head bolt onto the evo 4+ block?
that negates all the wiring issues for injectors and stuff and puts the turbo where you want it
are the front of the engines similar in the timing arrangement therefore the front engine mount changed to the evo 3 one.
maybe i will just find some pics on the net and just compare them.
nimbus is narrow block? 6 or 7 bolt?

evo 1-3 head will not fit a 4+ block water and oil galleys are different
and just to correct an above comment the evo 5+ blocks do not get crank walk its impossible due to trust washer design
