I don’t know a ton about foreign motors other than surface level stuff like the 2JZ, Wankel, etc. so please forgive my ignorance outside of US motors.

However, in my eyes, it doesn’t get better than the simplicity and easily available power of the SBC, BBC, and 6BT. What are your all time favorites and why?

    In my land, 4g63 runs the streets. The engine was still in production and it’s easy to swap it into many Protons as they were based on the Mitsubishi platform.

      Lol it’s always funny looking at rotten Wiras with bad paint jobs having a 4G63T before they basically outlawed it for being such a common swap. Now you’re only limited to the 1.8s but that hasn’t stopped anyone really.

      Though tbh the parts are getting expensive so 4B is de wae if you have a Lancer/Inspira. Freaking dirt cheap makes me regretting not getting a cheap Inspira 1.8 lol. Only RM20k nowadays and the 2.4 4B12 is like a RM4k swap

        It’s outlawed? Never heard it was outlawed and I still see people run those setups, especially in car meets.

        The 4b platform isn’t really that popular unfortunately. Too much issues here and there.
