a 1g eclipse head will not fit first of all, why a 3.5L TB will be worthless. and that tach is a horrible position

I beleive its the evo 8 head that you use for the swap, but its alot more then just the head that you need.

well i would hope that the head swap wouldnt be that easy. thanks for the advice on the tach im just going with the recessed lighting and the blue bulbs with the dash.

besides the exterior the only thing im going to do is get a vis cf hood

I hope you took that big ass tach off? not trying to flame but it made me feel embarrassed to drive an eclipse. if you're thinking about swaps look into the evo8 and kia optima dohc, there's aton of info here just search. how about some pictures of the whole car?

Good luck on the build. Make sure you know exactly what you're up against before you start though.

well here are the new pics without that tach. i tell ya you deff have to get thoes led's. becuase thoes other bulbs a shittyyy

you can barely tell with the regular lights there

these are the kind that i used.
