If you run a 4G64 you will be worrying about modifying your water pump, maybe your headers will touch the bonnet since the head sits 6mm taller. You'll be worried about headgaskets depending on your budget and bore size. My alternator bracket needed slight fabbing, etc. You'll be using rods and pistons which are less common maybe than the 4G63 stuff.
I'd only go 4G64 if you really want to go with a big crank stroke. Otherwise, there are so many proven combos for the 4G63.

thank you. A post worth reading.
Few questions if you don't mind. I am new to the built motor thing so excuse my newbieish questions. I thought with a 4g63 crank and a 64 block with longer rods made it a longer stroke.
As for the water pump and other stuff I don't really mind other then the head gasket issue. apone my research the hg issue is always a concern from what I see.
