Some folks drove up from Argentina in a 1991 or 1992 Mitsubishi Delica van and made it as far as Santa Cruz, CA, USA. They need another motor for transplant before they can proceed. I live in Sacramento, CA and have been checking the local wrecking yards/dismantlers for a suitable motor. To be honest, I have no idea what to look for.

Since there are no Delica vans here as far as I know, I was wondering if anyone here knows for a fact which vehicle alternatives have any interchange with the Delica. The info I was given is this: WTB 1991 or 1992 naturally aspirated carburated 4G63 motor. Will they be available in a Gallant for example?

 

is it a gas motor that is in the van now ???? measure the bell housing bolt pattern the us van have a wide block 2.4 cars had a narrow block motor the two have diff bolt patterns on the bell housing the diesel version was never sold in the us you might be able to find one in canada

 

I'm under the impression that it is a gasoline motor. They probably don't want the 2.4 motor, just the 2.0. I don't have direct access to the vehicle since its in Santa Cruz and I'm in Sacramento.

 

you need to find out if it is a wide or narrow block
