Hello,
I have a 1991 Galant 2.0 SOHC Manual Trans. FWD I would like to know if anyone would know what I would have to replace to convert the car from FWD to AWD. I am going to be putting in a DOHC engine. I'm thinking about putting a Engine from a VR4. I know it might be cheaper to just find a VR4 but I like this car and I have already started to do some work on it.
no workee. your car no hava driveshaft tunnel, rear trunk floor WAAAY different. front bumper WAAAY different. wiring harness WAAAY different.
if i were you, i would keep the current galant as a winter car and get a vr4 for the rest of the year. so you get a racer and you don't have to lose the work you put into your current galant.
No can do.

That's right https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...fault/wink.gif
I totally agree!!! Why not have two galants? One stock for city driving and the other for those times when you want to let it all out. You will also have a "spare car" to play around with and experiment on.
You'd also have a spare car for when one was off the road having work done, AND be able to keep the mileage down on the high-powered beast which would lower your maintenance costs aswell 8)
all responses are true https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/smile.gif I'm looking forward to obtain my third galant, and have my 95 "re-engineered", after I'm done updating my 91,... sounds like fun?! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/smile.gif

You will spend way more money with engine swap, AWD swap and other mods than if you would just go and buy a VR-4... :roll:

yeah, not to sound rude but if finances don't allow a second car, they won't allow the kinds of swaps your talking about either. not to sound rude.
however, if you hunt around you may be able to get a good deal on a DOHC engine and a manual tranny to go with it. if your lucky you can get a wrecked car with everything you need maybe for a few hundred or so. and if you do all the work yourself it will be pretty good.
maybe you can get lucky and find a wrecked fwd turbo eclipse or talon or something.
