you have to swap over nearly everything bolted to an 18RG block to make the SOHC 18R into an DOHC 18RG
so you'll need an an 18RG to start with - in which case, why not just rebuild the 18RG,
but... seeing as you're in central america, you might find 18RG in short supply?
(not knowing what car this is going into) have you considered a 21 or 22R engine or an EFI version of one of them? both are supposed to be easily obainable in nth america - not so sure about central/southern america.
cheers and good luck,
Charles
