If you do any evo swap it would be easier. The 420a is reversed compared to the 4G63 from the 1 and 2gs. The evo 4g63 faces the same direction as the 420a.

I have lots of money into mine. If you feel the need to have a 4g63 powered vehicle sell it and buy a gst. If you want a pretty quick car and want something a little different buy a turbo kit for the 420a.
