Default MOVED: engine swaps for the excel

Hello,

Does anyone know of other engines besides the 4g63 engine that could fit in a 1987 excel? Im looking to do something different, like a honda or acura engine. Ive been doing research but had no luck. I hope someone can help me out

When you installed you mitsu engine, how hard was it? Was it a direct bolt on?

Its not a direct bolt on, but the early hyundais used mitsubishi engines so I doubt theres alot of work involved probalby as much as beta swappin an LC.
