WOW! this is very helpful for me!! I'm building a 2001 mitsubishi eclipse with the 4G64 SOHC. Swapping cylinder heads to a DOHC is a very good idea!

Thanks for sharing this detailed look at the swap. I've been knocking around the idea of doing this to my 3G Eclipse for a while. I've read up on all the forums, but this was useful to see some of the process on video.

So much information on all your G4JS swap. Thanks for all of it! I’m going to do it on my outlander this summer, just sourced a head at the junk yard.

Thank you for this I was trying to do all the research for this on my own and it was a pain and I didn’t know if it would even work

Good job doing it yourself and saving some money. Just a couple of tips though , The balance shaft belt should have been replaced seeing as you had the crank pulley off and you shouldn't use worm drive hose clamps on plastic radiator's they don't allow for expansion and can crack your hose connection point.

Great job bro

A great video. 👍🏽

Perfect man thank you

Nice job,I got a question plz,am swapping my 4g69 block to 4g64 ,will there be anny issues with the crank sensor, I notice a little deffrents with the cps plate,, the 4g69 has alot of spikes will the 4g64 only carry 2 cuts.do you think it would work with the 4g69 computer

Now to build an all engine eagle summit to drive my kids around in.

I do that crank bolt trick too. It’s always a pain any other way.

Hey, I did this swap and am planning on putting in some Kelford 272 cams. What are my options for tuning this thing? Did you do the tuning yourself when you turbo'd it?

Good project, that KIA head will fit to a 4g69 engine block, since I heard that you can swap the head of the 4g63 on to a 4g69 engine block, the 4g69 has more high-end torque.
