Saw you were also looking for some performance mods. Figured I can shine some light for you and maybe for some others looking to mod. I am using the 2.4l dohc head off of a 04 Optima can also come off a Santa Fe, Sonata. The head is practically the same to the smaller 2.0l 4g63t head from the evo. I was able to pick mine up for about $50 from a junkyard, don’t recommend spending more that $150 but no junkyard should ever ask that price. I will post a picture and a link as well to the parts list so you can know what it’ll take to get it done as well. Will also state for others you will need 12 point 13mm socket for the head bolts. The rest is outlined in the link ill attach http://www.club3g.com/forum#/topics/162930?page=1 wish you luck if you decide to mod if you havent already!
