No the block won't fit. It sits on the opposite side of the engine bay.

As far as the swap goes...anything can be done with enough money, time, work, know-how, and tools. There is actually a guy on here doing a full evo motor swap in a 2g GS. But its not to be taken lightly. If you are even asking the question of whether its a possible swap or not then you probably don't realize how much work it really is.

So realistically no the swap can't be done.

And as far as putting an eclipse head on a late model evo motor...thats not going to work either, since the two engines are oppositely opposed.

Why would you want to do this? You already pretty much have the same motor. And those evo engines aren't cheap either.
