    must be dumb but not finding what im searching for

    i recently got my 99 galant back from my ex wife which was a major screw up because she destroyed the poor car. but i have no desire to get rid of it and buy something new i think now its time to have fun with it and get the stuff done with it that i want.. i have a much better paying job and i have my bikes and two truck i can drive while doing this project......... i have been searching the site up and down and have yet to find a thread on the evo 8 swap into a 8g i dont know if im just missing it or looking up wrong in the search .... did find the thread on doing the 5 speed swap which i plan on doing ........im still new so im know im asking the same question but please guid me because im a lil slow in the head here lol also the other thing i need to know is there like a project forum or anything where i can post pics and everything as i build the car? any help would be great

    welcome forum stalker lol jk
    Theres a couple of members here who could point you in the right direction on the evo swap.

    But a easy/cheaper/ alternative that every ones been doing is swapping over the dohc hyundai/kia head. Its much like the evos head and youll keep your bigger displacement (2.4) and have all the options of evo head parts.

    I believe you have to relocate your starter when using the evo engine and eclipse/galant transmission. Theres more other modifications as well which arent too hard though.

    Only sonata f5m42 swapped. N/A build in motion.
