Default Convert a V4 to a V6 (5 Speed)
I was wondering If it's possible to put a V6 Motor in a 2003 Mitsu Eclipse (Gs I believe, which ever is the better of the two).

If so what also needs to be changed out in the vehicle?

Just the motor?

or the Transmission or??

it is not a direct swap and would cost you alot of money to do it, you would have to have motor mounts made and you would also need the transmission. youre better off turboing the 4g64
