Dodge or a Mitsubishi dealership, guy...
use http://www.2gnt.com/ and go to the CAPS menu to find the parts you need, and post there on the forum if you need help fixing it yourself. its a wicked site for the non-turbo 2nd gen Talon & Eclipse. If your car isn't a non-turbo, go to http://www.dsmtuners.com/ instead and search around on their forum.

i was looking for step by step on taking on my head but i still cant find anything even on that website.

yeah dodge dealers = 2-3x more than mitsu dealers. try platinum mitsu in calgary or westside in edmonton ... both were awesome and had some good prices. like b_t said, just find the parts you need in caps beforehand... itll make ordering them a lot easier and the parts ppl at the dealership will love you for saving them the hassle.

know one has step by step how to fix head gasket and what not...?

when the timing belt goes, u must rebuild the whole motor i believe, as the piston heads might be damaged, or might not be. u might want to look into purchasing a motor from jdmsource.ca
unless u trust ur own rebuild. i;ve personally spun a bearing on my 4g63 and i blew the timing belt on my bros 4g63:nut:

you can't get a JDM motor for our car...
the 420A is a common motor, though. Avengers have them, as well as Neons, although the Neon version is slightly different then the one in the Avenger and 2nd gen non-turbo DSMs.

Have you thought about looking at a service manual? :confused:
When timing belts break,it bends your valves,not blow the head gasket.

http://www.altrom.com/index.htm
check these guys.Find the parts you need ,write the #'s and go to any parts source or auto value and tell them to order this stuff from Altrom.

no i just meant like haynes doesnt see that version of the book "general" you have to buy a different manual or whatever...head gasket head job same shit to me...

When a timing belt goes, most of the time your valves will be bent. This isn't an easy and quick job to do. You first have to take all your belts off, take your valve cover off. Unbolt your head bolts, check your valves, replace the ones that are bent. Check your pistons to see how much damage, might have to polish the scuff marks done by the valves.

Overall, I suggest getting it to knowledgable mech, unless you have experience before hand.
