A bolt in engine would be the same as what you have now. Probably the Mitsubishi 2.6 liter.

you should have a KM145 transmission, pretty much any engine from the 4G5 series will bolt up, as long as the block width is the same. a wide block is 13.25" from shaft to housing bolts, a narrow block is 12.25" from shaft to housing bolts.
