Why wouldn't it? The 95 Galant DOHC 2.4 engine is exactly the same as what we build, just with crappy pistons and higher compression and of the course the dreaded 7-bolt setup. I ran the stock 95 cam gears in mine with HKS 272's and made decent power with it, runs fine. Now I run the adjustable gears simply marked identically to the stockers, I haven't gotten around to degreeing them properly.
