Everything I’m finding is mentioning the vfaq and based solely off of the lump under the crank pulley it’s definitely a “7 bolt” . I think this motor has been swapped though. I followed the page showing how to swap a “1g into a 2g” although it doesn’t look like the holes in the instructions have been drilled
Based on the images from stmtuned.com , however, it looks like I have a 1g water pump.
Also read somewhere that the 6 bolt block doesn’t line Up with the shape of the trans bell housing in the front of the motor, kind of under/behind the turbo. And the 7 bolt block curves with the circular shape of the bell housing . Mine does not curve, it goes straight up and there’s a cut out where I can see a section of the back(engine-side) of the flywheel (where I assume a cover should go) which again points to mine being a 1g or 6bolt block.
My engine code stamp on the front of the block says
4G63
QH4885
It’s on the front under/behind the sort of like where the Hondas have their “D15Y7” engine stamp for example )
I’ve found a list of EVO motors but “QH” isn’t in the list, can’t find that list for DSM motors either.
Last clue is my cam angle sensor. It’s The big circular green one on the passenger side of the head. (Not the little sensor behind the cam gear on the timing belt side)… so I’m leaning towards thinking it’s also a 1g/6 bolt head.
I’ll add some pictures when I go put my lifters and rocker arms back in tomorrow .
Hopefully someone can help me figure this out because i need to figure out if I need a crank sensor and other misc parts and which engine to order them for!!!
There’s got to be a way without pulling the trans and counting the bolts right?!?
Thanks everyone!!
