Thinking about doing a 4g64/4G63 head combo

[Perkul8r]

Is it true that if you get the DOHC 2.4 that you dont have to worry about blocking off any oil return passages like on the SOHC motors

[TkrPerformance]

yep no plug's on the 4g64 dohc blocks

[Perkul8r]

So that would be the best block to go with than. Cool. I will have to scour the junkyard to see if there are any out there. I highly doubt it, but you never know.

From Wikipedia (Be advised that Wiki is not always the best source for credible information):


The 4G64 is the second largest variant, at (2350 cc). Early models were 8-valve SOHC, but a later 16-valve SOHC and DOHC version was also produced. All used MPFI with an 86.5 mm bore and 100 mm stroke. The 4G64 was also available with gasoline direct injection. The version used in the Chrysler Sebring/Stratus coupes produced 152 hp (110 kW) at 5500 rpm with 162 ft·lbf (214 N·m) of torque at 4000 rpm. The Chrysler version features fracture-split forged powder metal connecting rods. The 4G64 is an interference motor like the 4G63, however, the early 8-valve 4G64 is a non interference engine.

It didn't mention anything about the G4CS in particular. I am also not sure which ones were DOHC or SOHC, I don't know much about the 2.4's

[Goat Blower]

The G4CS came in 89-91 Hyundai Sonatas. That's the one I've used for my builds, no problems.

Awesome info. Thanks guys. So far from everything i read, i have gathered that using the 4G64 block and crank, with new rods and pistons can handle quite a bit.

As far as what i need to find, i have narrowed it down to:
4G64 short block
4G64 cam gears and timing belt.
And i can use a 1g turbo head.

So far i think thats the major things i need to get to get started.
I will continue to keep searching for more info cause i am sure there is more to this than what i have read so far.

Thanks again for the info.

Are you going to put the oil sqirters back in? just wondering.

[Halon]

Another option to consider might be to simply put the 2.4 crank in your 2.0 block. Might help keep your questions minimal as you don't need different cam gears, different t-belt, etc.

Just an alternative to consider as you might have a slightly easier time finding 2.0 blocks.

[Perkul8r]

I would have to find a machine shop to put in oil sqiurters. Not sure if any around here would do that.

I already have a lead on a good 2.0 block. I may just go with that for now. I am not find much for the 2.4's around here.

You should just buy my fully built 2.3 stroker and call it done. Throw it in and make power.
