Gah, beat me to it. Sorry, I forgot that they have the 4g64.
Did you know that folks are swapping your 7 bolt block in favor of the 6 bolt blocks? In other words the block is mated with the 4g63 head, hint, hint.
Is your motor on the driver's side or passengers?

If you really wanted less headaches, you could also just sell what you have and buy a GS-T Spyder and go from there or just sell it altogether and buy a GSX

Oh that's right. Canada does have the Eagle Talon TSi AWD though

What you will or may find though are TSi AWDs with an Eclipse body kit. I've seen them (in pics).
I'm pretty sure that your motor is on the driver's side like the 4g63s, otherwise folks would have issues getting the block to work with 4g63 heads.

Give me a moment and I'll post it for you. Well, as much as I can find on it anyway.

Do you know about the AWD swap for the FWD cars, to include yours too?
