Just curious about the valvetrain power options possible within these parameters.
NON-Jet valve cylinder head
Balance shaft delete
Not with the mikuni carb- 2/4 barrell carb
Carb'd VS fuel injection

You can use a non-jet head with mechanical or hydraulic lifters.

Balance shaft delete is possible, but rattled my Max's Starion engine apart.

The 2.6L engine is rather small for most 4-bbl carbs, smallest I've ever seen or read about is about 350 cfm. Most folks that don't want the Mikuni variants use a Weber.

FI from a Starion is likely the easiest non-carb swap. But, plenty of Magna intake systems and custom pieces are available. Look up Starion boards or get on MitsuNation on FB.

This is the fuel injection setup I have in mind.
I had a weber carb 36dgev on it for about a year but I took my truck off the road to get allot done on it and have the engine rebuilt by a knowledgeable shop.
Thanx for your input man!

Body Damage is Cool
Also on the Mitsubishilinks.com page there is a manual (or two) on hopping up the 2.6. Check that out
