8 injector itb setup
dry sump
600bhp so ~ 350rwkw perhaps

that's a late model block too (engine number is stamped on radiator side on both early and late blocks).

i thought there was no provisioning for one of the engine mounts for a north-south setup on the late model blocks? can you tell what they did to get around this?

I see RWD mount holes on the block here..

You can tell that's an Evo4+ block because of where the engine number location is placed - it is facing the radiator under the exhaust manifold in its original Evo4-9 location.

oh yeah, I see that now - but I thought they were absent from the late model 4g63s?
