I've done engines on the gen2 & 3, both normal injection and gdi. They're a bit of a pain to remove & fit, but when you start them up and they run like a Swiss watch, what a treat!!!!
it will depend on the shop, many shops will charge for the job it's self, plus an additional fee for motor swaps since they are so involved and require all new fluids. i talked with my mechanic friend before doing this one and he said $2,000 just in labor.. i think the engine was another $2,000 but i can't remember

Appreciate you posting more. Doing the front hubs on my Gen 3 right now!
Great video man. I am just starting to do the same on my 1991. Much appreciated!
I may have to do this to the Gen 1 we saved last year. Great video. 😎👍
i just got a gen 1 and want to swap my motor this is perfect
What engine did you think of swapping it with?
I found a 3.0 at a local salvage yard, i want to do a 4g55t swap but i cannot find a good one @@echosound87
Would love to see a video on how to change timing belt on this 1st gen
i'll go over it in the next video
So happy you posted this. I always wished my montero had more power, what engine do you think would work well as a possible swap for a gen 1 montero?
If you are really ambitions I’d look outside of the Mitsubishi world. An LS swap is probably the best move
@@montanamontero I happen to have a 95 Cavalier 2.2L low miles pull that is tempting me. Ya gotta at least go Fuel Injection if swapping engines.
Thank you for doing this !!! I just had the same thing happen to my motor ! Where did he get the motor his motor ?
The manifold is a royal pain to remove
Subbed thank you
Brilliant
How much would a job like this cost looking to possibly replace my engine just not not have any problems in the future for some good time?

Where'd you order the motor from?
i'm not 100%, the owner sourced it
These motors are hard to find
very
