93 1.8 swap to 4g63

[crazzyguydj]

i am on my second eclipse (first was a 92 2.0) now i have a 93 and i want to get the 1.8 outta there. i have searched the site but no thread has answered my question. i want to know what parts i need to swap for the 4g63, (non-turbo) if it is or isnt a good idea, or if there is some other 2.0 that would be easier to put in. i was planning on buying a 4g63 from a junkyard and rebuilding it and evantually dropping in the eclipse. i have heard all over that 4g63's are good engines that are good candidates for upgrades and would really like to put one in. also, when rebuilding the engine i was planning on replacing these parts
·NEW PISTONS
·PISTON RINGS
·PINS
·ROD BEARINGS
·MAIN BEARINGS
·THRUST BEARINGS
·TIMING SET BELT AND TENSIONER
·OIL PUMP
·FULL GASKET SET AND SEALS
·WATER PUMP
·BELTS
·PLUG SET
·BALANCE SHAFT ELIMINATOR KIT
·DRESS UP UNDERDRIVE PULLEY KIT

are there any other parts you would recommend replacing? last i wanted to know if i sohuld get a 6 bolt or 7 bolt engine. thanks in advance for all replies.

get a 6 bolt from the 1st gen. to do the swap u need at least the wiring harness, engine, probably motor mounts and if its a automatic you need the trans. manuals use the same trans except the awd has a transfer case hanging off the bottom.

ok, engine, wiring harness, mounts, trans. doesnt sound to hard other than the mounts, never did that before but, theres a first time for everything! thanks, derek o yeah and any other mods you think i sohuld get for the engine (other than a turbo) would be appreciated
