Mitsubishi 4G63T (1G DSM) specs: 2.0L (122 ci) 4-cylinder, 85 x 88 mm (3.3465 x 3.4646 in) bore and stroke, 7.8:1 compression. Rated 195 hp. DOHC.

The Mitsubishi 4G63T (1G DSM) is close to square: 3.3465" bore against 3.4646" stroke, within 3.4%, which splits the difference between a high-revving layout and a torque layout. The 3.4646" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 6,950 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 30.5 ci (500 cc).

7.8:1 on aluminum heads is low by modern standards and generally happy on regular pump fuel.

It is one of 7 engines in the 4G63 family, all of them 122 ci — the differences between them are in compression, heads and rating, not displacement. Factory fitments include the Mitsubishi Eclipse (1G Turbo), Eagle Talon (1G Turbo), Plymouth Laser (1G Turbo) and 1 other.
