evo swap in a 91 GSX

Already searched as best I could so please don't jump on me for that...

Just wondering is it possible/feasible/economical to swap the evo's 4g63 into a 1991 GSX? If not, what is the best swap to do, or is a stock engine the best choice?

Why woulld you want to switch it if its the same one? yea the older version but still the same. Without doing the sawp you can get Hp out of the gsx and still be cheaper than swapping the engine of the evo.

First of all I believe I mentioned that I DID do a search and nothing came up except a guy wanting to put an evo engine in his 2gnt.

Also, the engine in the Evo VIII is becoming easier and easier to find as these cars get wrecked, and they have low milage. Not to mention they already have ~280 hp. But that's okay, if you guys say it's not a good idea then I'll take your word for it because I'm relatively new to DSM's.

Anybody know a place online that sells stock engines with low mileage? If not maybe rebuilt ones?
