Sorry about asking this stupid question, about the engine, is the Evo 1-3 different from the 4-6.5/TME?
i mean i heard someone said they rev in a different direction, ugh, anti-clockwise/counter-clockwise..and so i have seen them (the engine) place in different side in the engine bay(from a evo3 and a 4).
what make such a big different between them?
thanks

All I know is that the engine's been rotated by 180 degrees to have a better cooling of it.

Actually the engine was changed over for better weight distrubtion in the rally car. The co-driver (on the right) sites further back than the driver so the engine is moved over to the right to balance out the driver sitting further forward on the left.
Think about it as its logical (Well I think so anyway)
I have heard this explaination from various sources so I assume its correct

If the engine has been rotated through 180 degrees, how do you drain the oil now that the sump plug is on top?

......just a thought
