I am not that familiar with the V6 on the 8G...is it the same as on the 3G eclipse? If so how come no one has tried...or posted a 6 speed swap instead of the usual 5 speed? And if it has been posted the search didnt find it. Just curious.

6 speed? Are you counting reverse as a gear on a 3G? Did you mean 4G?
I am pretty sure that it has been discussed before. Must have been on club3g though. Galant owners are not known for performance projects. Hell, I was worrying last summer that someone would beat me to second place for the 6G74 swap, and I completed it midway through this summer and still no one had gotten it done
not for nothing but i resent that statement.Quote:

Anyway, from what I understand, the 6G75 on the 4G apparently bolts up to the F5M51 (3G Eclipse manual tranny), but would need to verify that with Pharmecis. If that is the case, the 6-speed from the 4G may work on our 6G72s. I'd rather have the 6G75 tho :)
Well someone has successfully swapped in the 6G75 into a 3G eclipse and got it running. I'm pretty sure he is using the stock 3G tranny for that. IIRC, the only thing holding back others were the MIVEC heads, which he just wired to a switch on his shift knob.
but why doesn't someone just swap in the entire 6G75 + 6 speed :)
for the most part because they are still fairly new and mucho $$$. And from what I have read about it on c3g it isn't a simple swapQuote:

The 6G73 displaced 2497 cc. It was a 24-valve SOHC design with 2 valves running off one cam lobe, with a smaller bore than the 3.0 liter version of the same block. Bore and stroke were 83.5 mm × 76 mm (3.29 in × 2.99 in); it was a 60-degree V6 and weighed around 155 kg (340 lb). The engine had low-profile cast aluminum heads which helped it to fit into small engine bays, while pent-roof combustion chambers increased efficiency and made room for four valves per cylinder, arranged in a cross-flow pattern with a "tumble" intake port for both strong breathing and low emissions. Spark plugs were centered in the combustion chambers. The intake valves were 33 mm (1.30 in) in diameter while exhaust valves were 29 mm (1.14 in). A toothed timing belt was used.[2]
