Alright, so I have an opportunity to pick up a high mileage 4gcs from a local junk yard for cheap. The plan would be to turn it into a 2.2L long rod destroker. I currently have a built 2.0L 6 bolt that I could easily yank the crank and timing components off of, but the question becomes what to do with my built head? Will the 6 bolt 4g63T head drop right onto the 4gcs where the SOHC head used to be? Is there any modifying of oil passages that needs to be done? Also the 4gcs will be bored out to 87mm (.02 over) to rid the cylinder bores of any scars it may have left. So that also leads me to ask will the combustion chamber on the 4g63T cause any issues since it is desigend for a much smaller bore?
I do understand that this is the "6 bolt version" of a 4G64 so it will easily drop right into my 1G, but just to be safe has anyone bolted up a 6 bolt AWD trans to this block with success? The engine is coming out of a 1990 Galant with VIN code S and this has been verified by the junk yard. Any help on this would be great considering I am going to potentially pick this engine up very soon.
