Re: Magna 2.6 Help
This might not be the best enging to start work with...if you read the description it says "motor doesnt run too well, one cylinder not working".
But yes this is the engine you can work with and modify to fir RWD. I havent done the conversion myself however it has been readily covered on this site.
Cheers Matt

Re: Magna 2.6 Help
Didnt know that, ide never heard of it, so unfortunatly i cant tell you if its worth pursuing. However thats not to say it cant be done.
Sorry I cant be any help.

Re: Magna 2.6 Help
4G93T is the one that we got in the Lancer GSR 4WD turbo.
It would be a similar if not harder proposition than the front wheel drive Magna 2.6LT to convert into you Galant/Sigma.What gearbox would it bolt to?

Re: Magna 2.6 Help
did you want to go EFI? because thats got a carby... (just pointing it out although you probably realise that already)
you need a sigma timing case and water pump aswell to convert it to rwd.
