Please be respectful, this is very sentimental to me. I have a bunch of questions. I have a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS. I’ve been debating on what to do with it. I’m really into the 4G63 platform and have a GS-T as well already in my garage. I’ve always wanted to work on a car with my dad but he’s really not into the import scene and we can never agree on a car to work on together. He was at my place staring at the car saying it’d be cool to put a LS motor into it. I think this would be an amazing project to work on together. It would have my style with his personality under the hood. I’m not a big muscle car fan but I would love to have something we worked on together.
He has a spare LS1 motor for it and was thinking of throwing in a Ford 9 inch or 8.8 rear end. Does anyone have any good idea on how to mount the engine and rear end? I’ve seen some LS swapped Eclipses on YouTube but can’t seem to find the owners. Any leads would greatly be appreciated.
Now I don’t want to hear, “oh, you better have deep pockets, blah blah blah” My dad restores cars for a living so he is the perfect person for this project. He has all the available resources to get the job done. He doesn't have the car in his possession yet but I figured I'd so some asking around.
