Don't see why not, in fact it's not really an engine question so much as a gearbox question. Which one? How to make the appropriate
adaptors

Evo engines sit transverse. Would that be a prob? Mate just sold his evo 8 with 380bhp! Handled like it was on rails!

so does a zetec. would it be the same pattern bellhousing as some other rear drive mitsubishi? maybe the 3000gt? probably a massive box if you can get
hold of a manual one.

I've heard of a couple of starions fitted with evo engines so theres one 'box if you can find one!!!!
also the old hyundai steller used a mitsi box and if you can find one of the old mk1's they had cortina running gear. just after i left a
hyundai garage and started preping an evo3 rally car i always fancied putting the 2 together for a real sleeper

There might be a chance that the gearbox from a L200 and L300 might fit without severe modifications.
