Sorry not being lazy, just on phone.

Is non coil pack 1997 baleno engine to jimny ok to do, say if use G13b head from jimny with coil packs etc or will it reduce power or not possible? Ask as have come across cheap baleno. Thanks for advice.

it'll work.
i've done it before. i used the baleno head, jimny cam and cam cover as well as all the jimny manifolds

thanks for that, did you use the jimny coil packs as well ??

Jimny and baleno coil packs are the same, but yes, you'd use everything except the short block from the Jimny.

here's what i mean about the coil packs being different, i'm guessing this is just a slightly different ignition set up (it's a 1997 baleno, asking $300):

That engine has coil packs.

i thought the easier conversion was with the 2 coil packs on the rocker cover as the jimny has ? doesn't matter just now, the car sold in literally 2 days as you'd expect.
