I have a 99 eclipse with a 2.0L non turbo. I threw a rod the other day and put a hole in my block. Im trying to find out if I can swap it out for a 2.4L from a galant. Can I swap it out?

Yes, you can replace it, but we only recommend direct fit parts. Make sure to get the same year and make engine.

That will work. As far as the clutch, a clutch kit is around 300. Replace it all since the engine will already be out.
