Did it in about 4 hours.
I cut down the A/C mount (alot!! :) )
Seemd easy enough, just need a angle grinder(Chop chop) and a welder.
I did it so I can mount the PS pump down where the Alternator use to be.

Looks good, just wondering though on your second pic, the thing with the plug hanging off it in the block, is that that the knock sensor?

Yeah, thats the knock sensor.

Hers the other pics.IC is a bit wonky, its just a bent mount. It will be fixed.

Thats a massive Plenum !

Does anyone know which 4g63 twincams have the red cam cover and which have the silver ?

yup red is off a vr4/evo and the silver as jason has is from a n/a another easy way to tell the diff from a vr4 to a vr4 evo 0 its whats written on the inlet manifold ahhhh i rekon i've done this vr4 shit b4

cool. what is written on the evo/non evo vr4 inlet manifold?

Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2006 4:29 pm

It should be said that the manifold is off a Jap import galant which as the twin cam head. The NZ new galants have the single cam head. I guess the Aus new galants are the same.

The jap import N/A Galants manifold is similer to a EVO1-2 or 3. One runner per cylinder. The Import VR4s have a dual runner manifold.
I also shortend the intake runners by about 30mm.
