As the main belt is broken decided not to rebuild DOHC 4G63 engine but to replace it with SOHC 4G63 that is came of Mitsubishi GALANT SALOON VIII EA_1996–2006.

As it was stored for other project.

Purchased new belts pulleys what looked needed changing.

Once planed inserting it to CU2W needed to think something about engine mounts alternator and other things that don't look similar to do bolt on swap.

So first problem was main timing side engine mount, that is different on both engines. Had to grind bit of aluminum cast mount part to fit if on 4g63SOHC engine.

Once mount is redone to fit GALANT SALOON VIII EA_ 4G63 SOHC engine checking other belt drive parts as sohc has 4PK belt compared doch has 6pk belt drive so need to change pulley on generator.
