25885, SOHC - DOHC
Posted by tacoman123, Jun-24-02 06:39 AM
I found a good deal for a 2001 Eclipse GT (6 Cylinder), or the 6G72, but thats a SOHC...

Does anyone know if I can convert it to a DOHC, like the one found on the Twin Turbo 6G72 used in the 3000GT ?

Is there any difference between the 3G Eclipse V6 and the 3000GT TT motors beside that one is SOHC and the other is DOHC ?

Thanks

Sounds like you need to hit up www.dsmtalk.com and put this in the advance technical setion. Just my two cents though

The poor guy will probably get flamed since his car isn't even a DSM. Actually those guys are helpful. Someone may have even posted a similar topic.
