The engine from the 1996 and the 1998 Eclipse's are the same. So putting a '98 model engine in a '96 model car would NOT be a mod. But all the internal work done to the engine WOULD be a mod, yes. Personally (and I think an assload of people will agree with me), I would just list mods as what was done to the engine on the inside and not even note that the engine i from a different year car. Also if the new clutch is just a regular replacement, I wouldn't list it.

As far as the Bug, which is what I saw the "rebuilt engine" as a mod, I'd remove that as a mod. Other than that, everything else is ok.

Here's an example of what I did. I have a 1979 Civic. It had a factory 1.5L engine in it. I got an engine from a 1979 Accord (1.8L) and put it in my Civic. Since it's a bigger, little more powerful engine, that would be a mod. I consider it more along the lines of an upgrade, though.

Hope I've helped. And I'm not trying to run your site or your club or tell you how to set up everything. Just trying to give you words of wisdom to help you along. Later, QD.
